NORLINA prefixes in area code 252

NANPA records 5 assigned NXX blocks to rate center NORLINA in area code 252, 0.7% of the 695 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 CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - NC (2), BRIGHTSPEED OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA, LLC (1), CHARTER IP ENABLED SERVICES, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2005-09-16 and the most recent 2023-12-07. 3 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
