MARION prefixes in area code 828

NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MARION in area code 828, 1.8% of the 724 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 - NC (4), FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS OF THE CAROLINAS INC. - NC (3), SUNCOM DBA T-MOBILE USA (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-09-22 and the most recent 2024-03-21. 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 codes 220, 223, 231, 270 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
