All About the Telephone Code System
Today, the phone number format for countries in the US, Canada, and most of the Caribbean has this format: XXX – XXX – XXXX. The first XXX group is the NPA code designated by the North American Numbering Plan Administration (NANPA). The next three digits of the phone number are called the NXX, and refers to the exchanges (prefixes). The telephone service provider or carrier is the one that reserves these groups of numbers within an area code. Finally, the last group of Xs is the subscriber number.
If we take a look at the total number of NPA and NXX combinations available today, we can say that there are roughly 1.600.000.000 possible telephone number combinations, leaving about 4 numbers per person. That doesn’t mean there are way too many available, especially since many businesses and people use multiple phone lines.
All in all, it’s pretty organized right? However, it wasn’t always like that.
Why an Area Code System is Needed
From the late 19th century until the 20th century, The Bell Telephone Company and AT&T practically have a monopoly on telephone services in the US. During the mid-19th century, human operators redirected calls to their destinations. There were no numbers involved. However, there were too many errors and misunderstandings. As a result, the Bell Company introduced a new way to dial the phones using standardized abbreviations and numbers. Eventually, the network would expand so much that it became apparent that there is a need for area codes. Just only by adding the 3 additional numbers right before a local number meant that millions of new phone numbers can be issued.
In Northern America, which includes the US, Canada, and most of the Caribbean, the allocation of phone numbers is controled by the NANPA. They also govern divisions, adjustments to, or generations of new area codes. They also allocate these numbers to telephone service providers.
In addition to using area codes for specific regions, the NANPA also designates certain area codes for special purposes. The 800 code, for example, is exclusively for toll-free calls wherein the one receiving the call is the one charged as opposed to the one making the call.
Area codes specifically were created in 1947 to satisfy post-WWII’s increased demand for telephone services. Today, more area codes are issued to accommodate the growing demand for telephone services. Since the NANPA is responsible for assigning area codes, it also follows the international standard for numbering plans.
As mentioned, in the United States, more than 310 area codes are in use. Depending on the number of people living in your area, you may interact with one or more area codes. Densely populated states like Florida and California are covered with more than one area code, whereas low population states like Montana and Idaho only have one area code.

Why You Need to Know Area Codes
What would you do if you got a call from an unknown area code? The natural reaction is to reject it, right?
Area codes serve as a means for us to know where the call is coming from. It might be that the person on the other line is your future employer, business partner, or customer, and there are times that you need to know that information. It might also be that somebody is calling you because of an emergency about a family member.
If you are keen on maintaining your privacy and do not want intrusive phone calls, you must know the area codes and its purpose. It has never been more important than these days! Many people are constantly thinking of ways to scam others. One common scam involves shady people calling their targets, usually with the help of auto-dialers, and hanging up before someone from the other end answers. When this happens, the target is usually so curious about the missed call that he calls the number back. In this case, however, it is likely a premium number, similar to the one set up by psychic hotlines and phone sex operators that automatically receive the calls you make and charge an arm and a leg for each one.
In these cases, a surefire way to stay protected is: never call an unknown phone number back unless you are 100% sure about who’s calling! However, it’s understandable that you’re worried about missing an important call. In such cases, performing a reverse phone lookup or area code lookup can help.
The next time you receive a call from an unknown area code, it is better to trace the caller’s number using our website. You never know, and it might be a call about some good news.

Called at 1:05PM on 5/7/25! Missed call! Do not know anyone at this phone number! DO NOT ANSWER 800# AS A RULE!
Received several calls from different numbers claiming to be from either Chase or Bank of America. I do not bank with either. Received 4-5 while at work. All with heavy Asian or Malaysian accents and broken English...could not understand what made-up names they were using. One of the callers is even calling from a number of an existing branches of Bank of America in Phoenix, AZ and Orange, CT. One guy made a mistake in saying he was from Bank of America when the caller id stated Chase. He also stated that their randomly given phone numbers. I could hear all the other callers in the background the entire time. Worried that they had the last 4 digits from my SSN, but could tell that they were scammers. They got an earful from me....I was furious at this point having had calls all day while at work. They were rude, persistent, and wouldn't hang up until I got just as rude, etc. Banks will not call you randomly and they will not call from a branch....they have corporate departments that handle fraud cases. Keep your personal identification information close to you and do not share with anyone!

They won't leave a message, and it's quiet on the other end when I answer. They won't stop calling. Is this a credit servicer? I shouldn't be receiving these calls.
The caller wanted my all information. I asked who she was, she said she was from First Bank Trust Portfolio. I hung up and blocked the caller. Totally is a scam call.

Caller's name: Patient billing
A woman called asking for me by my legal name. I don’t use my legal name. I use a shortened version of my name. I asked her who she was with and she said she was with patient billing. I told her that really doesn’t tell me who you’re with. What company are you calling with? She wouldn’t tell me because she said she had to verify I was who she was trying to reach. However, I will not give my birthdate or my Social Security number out as it’s security risk. I told her I can’t talk to you until I know what company you’re with… if you need to reach me then you should have my address. Send me the information you need to give me and I hung up on her. If they weren’t with a doctors office or a hospital or surgical center, it does not break HIPAA rules to tell me who you’re with. You’re not giving out anybody any type of medical information by telling me who you’re with Be aware of the scammers. Don’t give any information out unless you are completely 100% sure of who you’re talking to. Also be aware not to say the word yes or no scammers can be recording and can change their part of the recording to make it sound like you’ve agreed to something that you haven’t. The way I look at it if somebody has a bill that they are calling me about they can easily mail me the information, but as I have not received any bills or any information for my insurance that something hasn’t been paid This tells me it’s a scam.
Says they sre representing the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. Sounds fishy.
