ALBEMARLE prefixes in area code 980
NANPA records 6 assigned NXX blocks to rate center ALBEMARLE in area code 980, 1.3% of the 464 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 LEVEL 3 TELECOM OF NORTH CAROLINA, LP - NC (1), BANDWIDTH.COM CLEC, LLC - NC (1), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - GA (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-06-06 and the most recent 2026-04-24. 6 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 704 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
