CUMBERLAND prefixes in area code 240
NANPA records 16 assigned NXX blocks to rate center CUMBERLAND in area code 240, 2.0% of the 785 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 OMNIPOINT COMMUNICATIONS CAP OPERATIONS, LLC (4), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - DC (3), VERIZON MARYLAND, INC. (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-03 and the most recent 2021-09-01. 15 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 207, 227, 301, 317 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
