WALTERBORO prefixes in area code 843
NANPA records 8 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WALTERBORO in area code 843, 1.0% 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 CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - SC (2), FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS OF THE CAROLINAS INC. - SC (2), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-12-04 and the most recent 2012-03-12. 7 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.
