MERCERVL prefixes in area code 609
NANPA records 20 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MERCERVL in area code 609, 2.6% of the 780 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. 8 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW JERSEY, INC. (9), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (3), ONVOY, LLC - NJ (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2014-03-14 and the most recent 2024-03-22. 12 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 code 640 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
