OXFORD prefixes in area code 662
NANPA records 21 assigned NXX blocks to rate center OXFORD in area code 662, 2.8% of the 756 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. 9 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTH CENTRAL BELL TEL (8), LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - MS (3), POWERTEL MEMPHIS LICENSES, INC. (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-29 and the most recent 2016-05-26. 14 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 207, 248, 283, 308 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
