PINETOPS prefixes in area code 252

NANPA records 6 assigned NXX blocks to rate center PINETOPS in area code 252, 0.9% 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. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - NC (2), CSC VOICE, LLC (1), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-11-29 and the most recent 2019-03-28. 6 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
