LONG BEACH prefixes in area code 360
NANPA records 6 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LONG BEACH in area code 360, 0.8% 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. 4 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CENTURYTEL OF WASHINGTON, INC. DBA CENTURYLINK (3), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - WA (1), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-12-21 and the most recent 2003-04-21. 5 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 472, 562, 910 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
