TUNICA prefixes in area code 662
NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center TUNICA in area code 662, 2.1% of the 756 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. 11 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTH CENTRAL BELL TEL (3), TELEPAK NETWORKS, INC. - MS (2), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MS (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-29 and the most recent 2010-01-07. 14 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 225 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
