FORTGAINES prefixes in area code 229
NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center FORTGAINES in area code 229, 0.6% of the 685 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. 4 holders hold those blocks, the largest being MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC - GA (1), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (1), ONVOY, LLC - GA (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-05-14 and the most recent 2006-05-09. 4 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
