You can add your cell phone number to the Do Not Call Registry. This does not guarantee that you will never receive another telemarketer call on your cell phone, and they are allowed a period of time, (I think a month or two) to get your phone number off their records.
In any case, the Federal Trade Commission does allow cell phone users to add their numbers to the National Do Not Call Registry — the same one already in force for landlines — either via the Web or by calling 1-888-382-1222.
Contrary to what most variants of the email rumor claim, there is no 31-day, 16-day, or 8-day deadline for adding cell phone numbers to the Do Not Call list — indeed, there is no deadline whatsoever.

Next time you get a call from a telemarketer, ask to be put on their "Do not call" list. By federal law they have to do that and in addition some states also have laws covering telemarketers. In theory, and in time, your number should be removed fro all lists. I believe there are also stricter laws regarding calling cell phone numbers.
Good luck.

Call your local service provider and ask to purchase a line block on your line for privacy matters. Check your what service you have already. If you long distance unlimited you may already have the features available to you to block your line at a particular time and not know it.

Wisconsin has a "DO NOT CALL" list to handle this problem. Check if your state has this.
