I see.

In that case, I would have said,

No le entiendo muy bien. Entonces, ¿quiere decir que puedo irles a ver ahora o no?

¡Responda a mi pregunta!

¿Sí o no? ¡Leches!

Sorry, I normally try to be polite, but sometimes you need to create some "impingement", make some effect, so they explain you what is the deal.

The "¡Leches!" part is influenced by José María Íñigo radio program section at "No es un día cualquiera", entitled: "Que lo digas en español: ¡leches!", where he pokes some fun at the fact that we (Spaniards) tend to use more and more English in our day to day activities...
