To the Editor:

Phone Abuse ... Robocalls! This abuse of our telephone system needs to stop and be regulated.

Reinstate the “No Call” list that will also apply to robocallers.

This is a partial list of calls I received on August 23. It started at 8 am but I did not start jotting down numbers and times until later. This was a light day. Usually, I receive between 13-18 calls a day and some after 6 pm.

This is happening to me daily and this was a minor day. Here are the calls I received:

406-325-1071 —12:40

737-281-0857 — 1:45

920-804-1173 — 1:58

203-445-4279 — 2:45

769-297-1218 — 2:57

203-445-9411 — 2:59

203-422-7517 — 3:09

854-237-1882 — 3:12

414-943-1290 — 3:31

203-458-2826 — 3:32

203-419-4414 — 3:45

930-273-1258 — 4:15

Today, August 25, was horrendous with over 18 calls to my number, starting at 8 am. I am writing you in hopes that if enough people complain, we can get this system regulated.

I am a senior with medical issues.

What happens if I need medical assistance and my phone is tied up with a robo call that blocks me from making a call for help?
