PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automatic line connection control apparatus that discriminates propriety of connection of a caller subscriber number of an incoming call received through a telephone line and automatically interrupts the line when the discrimination indicates negation. SOLUTION: An MF reception circuit 12 demodulates a caller subscriber number from a signal arrived in a telephone set of a facsimile terminal 3 and a line connection history memory 18 stores the caller subscriber number and a data and time for line connection detected by a timer 14. When a subscriber discriminates that automatic line interruption is desired from its 2nd and succeeding calls, a display circuit 16 displays contents of the line connection history memory 18 and the subscriber selects the telephone number as an automatic interruption object number or the subscriber enters an optional subscriber number from an entry circuit 17 and registers it to a reject number registration memory 19. A collation circuit 13 collates the caller subscriber number with the registered numbers as to all succeeding incoming calls and when the collation result indicates coincidence, a line interruption circuit 11 automatically interrupts the line.
