BAD AXE prefixes in area code 989
NANPA records 9 assigned NXX blocks to rate center BAD AXE in area code 989, 1.2% of the 723 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 AMERICAN MESSAGING SERVICES, LLC (2), MICHIGAN BELL TEL CO (1), METROPCS, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-06-27 and the most recent 2023-07-28. 5 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
