DICKINSON prefixes in area code 832
NANPA records 14 assigned NXX blocks to rate center DICKINSON in area code 832, 1.8% of the 786 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. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - TX (4), AERIAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (4), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-14 and the most recent 2014-10-22. 14 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 281, 346, 701 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
