MOSS POINT prefixes in area code 228
NANPA records 9 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MOSS POINT in area code 228, 3.3% of the 275 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 PAETEC ITEL, LLC (2), FRACTEL, LLC (2), BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTH CENTRAL BELL TEL (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-09-07 and the most recent 2024-06-18. 5 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
