Area code 220 overlays area code 740. Area code 740 was established in 1997 from a split of area code 614. Due to the expected exhaustion of numbers, area code 220 was introduced on April 22, 2015. All calls within this numbering plan area require ten-digit dialing.
Area code 740 is a general purpose code which was placed in service on December 6, 1997.
Our Ohio phone number lookup service will analyze the three-digit prefix of any 740 area code phone number and will show which telecommunications company and rate center it was initially assigned to. This prefix code data may help to determine the U.S. carrier, Ohio geographic region, and local calling area associated with the phone number.
Phone numbers follow the following structure under the North American Numbering Plan:
Understanding the area code can help you determine if a call is local to your area. However, keep in mind that due to mobile number portability and VoIP services, the caller may be anywhere in the United States, so it’s best to search for the most recent phone number details.
