MARLBORO prefixes in area code 774
NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MARLBORO in area code 774, 2.5% of the 522 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 CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MA (3), METROPCS, INC. (2), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-03-19 and the most recent 2021-07-15. 12 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 234, 330, 508, 845 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
