COMMERCE prefixes in area code 706

NANPA records 7 assigned NXX blocks to rate center COMMERCE in area code 706, 0.9% of the 777 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being WINDSTREAM GEORGIA, INC. (4), POWERTEL ATLANTA LICENSES, INC. (2), SOUTHERN COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2008-01-11 and the most recent 2016-10-12. 3 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 248, 430, 539, 762 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
