WHITING prefixes in area code 712

NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WHITING in area code 712, 0.5% of the 633 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 ONVOY, LLC - IA (1), COMMCHOICE OF IOWA, LLC (1), QWEST CORPORATION (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-01-31 and the most recent 2020-12-22. 2 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 219, 785, 802 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
