STEVENSON prefixes in area code 256
NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center STEVENSON in area code 256, 0.5% of the 786 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (2), BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTH CENTRAL BELL TEL (1), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - AL (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-04-14 and the most recent 2004-04-19. 4 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 509, 938 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
