if(

CONTAINS("506:709:902",LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(Phone,"(",""),3)),"UTC-4 Atlantic",

 

if(

CONTAINS("800:877",LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(Phone,"(",""),3)),"Toll Free","Other"

 

)))))))


Please note that for forcing the entry of phone as per 999-999-9999 format the following Validation can be used

!REGEX(Cust_Phone__c,"^(\\d{3}\\-\\d{3}-\\d{4})?$")
