HILTONHEAD prefixes in area code 843

NANPA records 28 assigned NXX blocks to rate center HILTONHEAD in area code 843, 3.6% of the 783 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 HARGRAY TEL. CO., INC. (10), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (6), POWERTEL ATLANTA LICENSES, INC. (5). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-09-27 and the most recent 2024-07-03. 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 code 854 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
