Wireless and wireline

How the allocation was built up

The register dates none of Meath Park’s assignments: all 1 prefixes predate CNAC’s record-keeping, the signature of an old, settled network where nothing has been added in decades.

SaskTel is the only carrier ever recorded for Meath Park: no competitor has obtained a prefix here. A single-carrier rate centre is typical of small communities where only the incumbent ever built a network.

Meath Park has just 1 prefix (10,000 numbers): a very small rate centre, typical of a village or rural area served by a single switching office.

The local market is an allocation monopoly: SaskTel holds every prefix, and no competitor has ever requested a code for Meath Park.

Had a call from a Meath Park number?

    If a caller says they are your bank, the Canada Revenue Agency, a courier or your phone company, hang up and call the organization on the number from its website or your statement, never the number that called you. Caller ID can be faked.

  2. Report the fraud

    Report the call or text to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre online or at 1-888-495-8501. If you lost money or gave out personal details, tell your bank first, then your local police.

  3. Register on the National Do Not Call List

    Registering a landline or mobile on the National DNCL is free. Registered charities, political parties, newspapers and companies you already do business with may still call.

  4. Forward suspicious texts to 7726

    Forward a scam or spam text to 7726 (SPAM on the keypad). It's free, and your carrier uses it to block the sender. Don't tap links or reply.

An allocation says who was issued the prefix, not who serves the number today: numbers can be ported between carriers, and caller ID can be spoofed outright.
