How can I make the telemarketing calls to my cell phone stop?

Anyone know where or how can I get a grancentral.com invite?
My cell phone is being besieged by telemarketing calls and I'm going insane. Anyone know how I can get a grandcentral invite, or know how I can make the calls stop? I'm on the Do Not Call List, but it doesn't seem to be making much of a difference.

Best answer: It is true, Google is no longer allowing sign-ups to Grand Central. Who knows when they will start accepting new sign-ups again. Beyond that, they have not made a single improvement since acquiring it.

Best answer: I am not sure how a grandcentral number will help you at this point. If they already have your direct line, you would need to change that before implementing your GC plan. I have a GC number and it works for screening callers and setting them to auto voice mail etc. But the folks who knew me before GC still get directly onto my cell.

The donotcall list takes about a month to kick in, and doesn't apply to charities or companies you've done business with...

Best answer: About the only way to do this now is to know someone who works at Google. They could probably get you in. But other than that, just wait it out.
