BELLWOOD prefixes in area code 708

NANPA records 23 assigned NXX blocks to rate center BELLWOOD in area code 708, 2.9% of the 784 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 ILLINOIS BELL TEL CO (7), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (4), TELEPORT COMMUNICATIONS AMERICA, LLC - IL (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-04-12 and the most recent 2013-08-22. 17 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 402, 464, 582, 814 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
