LAPLACE prefixes in area code 985
NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LAPLACE in area code 985, 3.6% of the 447 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 NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (4), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (4), BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTH CENTRAL BELL TEL (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-23 and the most recent 2024-03-12. 13 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
