ADA prefixes in area code 616
NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ADA in area code 616, 2.4% of the 545 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (4), MICHIGAN BELL TEL CO (3), ONVOY, LLCV - MI (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-01-10 and the most recent 2021-07-20. 11 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 codes 218, 419, 567, 580 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
