How Do You Get Rid of Annoying Telemarker Calls ???  

I always try to sell them something back like my vehicle or a dvd or whatever comes to mind. I get them to hang up on me and they don't call back :)

We had the same problem after our move, I registered our phone number with the do not call registry to block telemarketers and I also turned on the anonymous call rejection, this way if it is an unlisted or unblocked number they can not get through. Try looking into these options I know how annoying it gets to be;)

If you are in the United States, there is a National Do Not Call Registry, which is managed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), part of the government's Consumer Protection Agency. Once you register your phone number with the registry, the telemarketers have 31 days to remove your number from the list and stop calling you. If they continue to call, you can file a report and they will be liable for penalties and fines.
You can get all of the information and register online at:https://www.donotcall.gov/default.aspx

tell them to stop calling

Now that is a question that I really wish I knew the answer to. I get them all day every day. They drive me nuts! I have been nice and I have been mean, but nothing seems to stop these people. A friend told me to take their name and number and to call the office back and ask to talk to a manager. Then explain to them that you are being harrassed and if they dont stop you are going to report them. I thought about trying it but first I need to find out who I can report it to. I hope you get some good answers on this. I will keep check. Good luck

I'd like to know the same thing. They totally plagued my phoneline where I used to live, and now after having moved more than halfway across the country and having a new phone number, they continue to plague me some more. Plus there are even more calls than before. I'd say I'm not totally sure how they even get my number, but I think a lot of it has to do with things I sign up for on the internet. That, and I have a suspicion that businesses (like doctors, credit card companies, etc.) sell your number. I'd really like to know how to get rid of them, though - "do not call" lists never seem to work for me.

This registry works for me haven’t had a call since I registered both cell and land phone on it. No guarantee but it helps sttp://www.fcc.gov/cgb/donotcall/

i know here in illinois we have the "National DoNot Call Registry.com" you enter in your home phone number,cell number and they will block the calls. The only calls that will go through is numbers that you gave to chargecards,businesses. You could try it,it's free to register. Good luck!

I just hang up on them

I too had this problem but it slowed down a lot. I don't know if you are aware but alot are recorded or listened to by management. I got really fed up and started saying things like before we start can I please have the address details of the company you work for so I can bill them for my time....I will continue if someone will come and look after my kids...I must have been taken off the data bases as I get less than 1/4 of them now
