TOPSFIELD prefixes in area code 978
NANPA records 8 assigned NXX blocks to rate center TOPSFIELD in area code 978, 1.0% of the 773 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. 6 holders hold those blocks, the largest being VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (2), MCIMETRO ACCESS TRANSMISSION SERVICES LLC (2), COMCAST IP PHONE, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-01-08 and the most recent 2003-01-08. 7 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
