NEWTON prefixes in area code 641
NANPA records 10 assigned NXX blocks to rate center NEWTON in area code 641, 1.7% of the 584 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. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being WINDSTREAM IOWA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. - SYSTEMS (4), T-MOBILE USA, INC. (3), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-03-20 and the most recent 2001-03-20. 8 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 229, 304, 316, 334 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
