How to stop these phonecalls?

We get calls all the time from many different tele-marketers speaking in Spanish because we have a Spanish last name. But we don't speak Spanish! I've tried explaining to them to take us off their calling list and not to call us anymore. But that doesn't seem to stop them...either that or they didn't understand a single word I said! I've listed us on the "no call" list but I'm still getting these calls. I've tried screening their calls and just hang up. But they keep calling! It's SO annoying. Any suggestions?

You should head over to the site I've attached and get on the National Do Not Call Registry. It's free to join and after about 10-14 days all those telemarketing calls will stop. We've been on it for a little over 2 years and never receive any of those types of calls.

Sorry for the scream at the end, it just drives me so crazy! I hate it most when they call when my toddler is asleep. I don't want these calls to wake him up.

What the heck! On the Do not call list but still getting alot of calls- Next time they call ask to speak to their supervisor- boss- and then tell them- If they keep calling- threaten lawyer- maybe they will understand that- Makes no sense to me-

I tried but they just hang up on me! And they keep calling. So now, I just hang up on them. But it doesn't seem to stop them.

They are so thick-skin...don't think they will get frustrated and stop.
