AIKEN prefixes in area code 803
NANPA records 32 assigned NXX blocks to rate center AIKEN in area code 803, 4.1% of the 784 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being POWERTEL ATLANTA LICENSES, INC. (10), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - SC (8), BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTHERN BELL TEL & TEL (8). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-04-26 and the most recent 2021-02-01. 23 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 839 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
