IRONTON prefixes in area code 740
NANPA records 14 assigned NXX blocks to rate center IRONTON in area code 740, 1.8% 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. 9 holders hold those blocks, the largest being OHIO BELL TEL CO (5), METROPCS, INC. (2), AERIAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-07-10 and the most recent 2007-04-13. 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 codes 220, 573, 610 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
