City night line reservation call number

I am very frustrated and disappointed with Germany's CNL reservation system. I have called repeatedly for the last 2 days trying to book a CNL train that cannot be booked online. Each time, I am placed on hold. When someone answers and I ask for an English-speaking agent, I am transferred to a number with a recording that says “all lines are busy-please call back later”. This is becoming extremely expensive to make all of these international calls. I also tried to contact customer service for assistance, and they also refused to help. Today, a person from the call center answered when I was transferred to an English-speaking agent. She said she could not help me. When I asked her when is a good time to call to get through to an English-speaking agent, she said “I am sorry-I cannot help you”. This seems a very inhospitable and inconsiderate way to treat international travelers who wish to visit your country. If anyone has a suggestion, I would appreciate it.
