GAINES prefixes in area code 989
NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center GAINES in area code 989, 0.4% 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being FRONTIER NORTH, INC. - MI (1), TELEPORT COMMUNICATIONS AMERICA, LLC - MI (1), INTERACTIVE SERVICES NETWORK, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-12-05 and the most recent 2001-12-05. 2 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
