SUMTER prefixes in area code 803
NANPA records 20 assigned NXX blocks to rate center SUMTER in area code 803, 2.6% 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS OF THE CAROLINAS INC. - SC (7), BANDWIDTH.COM CLEC, LLC - SC (3), FTC DIVERSIFIED SERVICES, INC. (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-05-13 and the most recent 2020-07-23. 11 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 839 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
