Phone Carrier MCCMNC

Phone Carrier MCCMNC

Store precise technical carrier identifiers

Overview

Clean Dial's Phone Carrier MCCMNC property stores the standardized Mobile Country Code (MCC) and Mobile Network Code (MNC) for a contact's phone carrier. Unlike carrier names which can vary (e.g., "T-Mobile", "T-Mobile USA", "Metro by T-Mobile"), the MCCMNC is a unique numeric identifier (e.g., 310410) that provides precise technical identity for routing and segmentation.

How It Works

When contacts pass through a Clean Dial HLR Lookup workflow action or bulk HLR lookup process, the system automatically:
    Identifies the carrier network via HLR lookup
    Extracts the standardized MCCMNC code
    Sets the phone_carrier_mccmnc property on the contact record

What is MCCMNC?

MCCMNC stands for Mobile Country Code + Mobile Network Code.
  • Example: 310410
  • 310: United States (MCC)
  • 410: AT&T Mobility (MNC)
This code is the global standard used by telecom networks to route calls and messages.

Benefits

  • Precise Segmentation: Segment users by exact network, avoiding confusion between sub-brands and parent networks.
  • Technical Routing: Essential for advanced SMS routing configurations that require network codes instead of names.
  • Data Standardization: Maintains clean, standardized carrier data regardless of naming conventions.
