MILES CITY prefixes in area code 406
NANPA records 10 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MILES CITY in area code 406, 1.3% of the 754 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. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being QWEST CORPORATION (2), MID-RIVERS TELEPHONE COOPERATIVE, INC. (2), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-01-09 and the most recent 2003-01-09. 8 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
