The U.S. telecommunications giant and Apple say AT&T gained the veto power as part of its exclusive contract with Apple to serve as the popular iPhones' sole service provider, Financial Times reported Saturday.
The agreement limits iPhone owners' use of Voice over Internet Protocol services -- such as Skype -- to WiFi hotspots, thus denying users the ability to use AT&T's own network to access calling services cheaper than it provides.
But the company said that could change in the future.
"We plan to take a fresh look at possibly authorizing VoIP capabilities on the iPhone for use on AT&T's 3G networks," the telecommunications provider said in a statement.
Apple and AT&T made the comments in response to questions from the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission after Apple reportedly rejected downloadable App Store programs based on Google Voice.
