I see situations up here in Minnesota where it appears that CenturyLink is essentially CLECing themselves.? An simple example would be Warroad, MN. https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-by-ratecenter-state?ratec... CENTURYTEL OF MINNESOTA, INC. (CenturyLink, Inc) OCN 1445 is the original ILEC in Warroad with 218-386. CENTURYLINK COMMUNICATIONS, LL (CenturyLink, Inc) OCN 508J has CLECed Warroad with 218-986-6. The same sort of thing exists for Roseau <https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-by-ratecenter-state?ratec...>, Baudette <https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-by-ratecenter-state?ratec...>, and Humbolt <https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-by-ratecenter-state?ratec...>. Over in Thief River Falls, MN, the original ILEC is 218-681, shown as QWEST CORPORATION OCN 9631. https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-by-ratecenter-state?ratec... CENTURYLINK COMMUNICATIONS, LL (CenturyLink, Inc) OCN 508J is also present in this exchange with 218-684-7. As a bonus, LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - (CenturyLink, Inc) OCN 5256 is here too with 218-416-8. We have a nickname for this company where we try to slur all the names together.? It sounds something like: Qwest-tree-Tel-Link But trying to add Level 3 and Lumen to the mix is somewhat challenging.? Maybe make the "tree" sound into a "three"?? I'm open to suggestions on this clearly very important topic. Qwest-3-Tel-Link ???
