MECOSTA prefixes in area code 231
NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MECOSTA in area code 231, 0.7% of the 572 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 NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (1), CHARTER IP ENABLED SERVICES, LLC (1), ONVOY, LLCV - MI (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-03-05 and the most recent 2022-02-04. 3 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
