DORSET prefixes in area code 802
NANPA records 4 assigned NXX blocks to rate center DORSET in area code 802, 0.7% of the 571 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being UNITED STATES CELLULAR - VT (2), ONVOY, LLC - VT (1), CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS OF VERMONT COMPANY (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 440 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
