Spanish Telemarketers
Has anyone been tormented by Spanish speaking telemarketers? At least I assume they're telemarketers since I don't speak Spanish. They're driving us nuts. The number on the caller ID is from Mexico, so they aren't covered under the "do not call" list. Last night they called at 11:30 and they've called 3 times today already. H-e-l-p-p-p-p-p-p!

1. Are you not on the "no call list' ?

2. Yes, but it doesn't apply to calls coming in from another country. nt

4. I never get any telemarketers since I got on VOIP
over two years ago. Can you contact your telephone company and complain?

5. If they continue, I'll call. Thought I'd try to get a sense of how common
this problem is. Apparently not terribly common, judging from the few responses. The last time they called my husband picked up the phone and didn't say a thing and eventually they stopped talking and hung up. Maybe if we ignore them they'll go away.
