TAUNTON prefixes in area code 774
NANPA records 11 assigned NXX blocks to rate center TAUNTON in area code 774, 2.1% 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. 9 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MA (3), TC SYSTEMS, INC. (1), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-03-20 and the most recent 2024-11-11. 10 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 508 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
