SCHENCTADY prefixes in area code 518
NANPA records 50 assigned NXX blocks to rate center SCHENCTADY in area code 518, 6.5% of the 775 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 13 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW YORK, INC. (25), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (6), TWC IP ENABLED SERVICES, LLC (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-04-16 and the most recent 2019-10-11. 33 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area code 838 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
