SPARKMAN prefixes in area code 870
NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center SPARKMAN in area code 870, 0.4% of the 785 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - AR (1), WINDSTREAM ARKANSAS, INC. (1), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2007-08-22 and the most recent 2015-03-31. 2 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
