COVINGTON prefixes in area code 859
NANPA records 95 assigned NXX blocks to rate center COVINGTON in area code 859, 16.9% of the 563 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. 18 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CINCINNATI BELL (25), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - KY (19), T-MOBILE USA, INC. (16). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-03-26 and the most recent 2025-03-05. 57 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 254, 470, 540, 570 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
