MURPHYSBO prefixes in area code 618
NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MURPHYSBO in area code 618, 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. 2 holders hold those blocks, the largest being FRONTIER NORTH, INC. - IL (3), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (1). 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 code 730 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
