JAMAICA PL prefixes in area code 617
NANPA records 18 assigned NXX blocks to rate center JAMAICA PL in area code 617, 2.3% of the 768 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. 8 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (9), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC (3), ONVOY, LLC - MA (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-12-06 and the most recent 2023-07-18. 10 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 857 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
