AT&T on weekend made a very strange and startled move by prohibiting the online sale of iPhones through their web sites. The latest update to the news is that their move is now restored back.
Earlier when the AT&T blocked the online sale through att.com they defended the move by several statements like “increased fraudulent activity in that area when ordering the iPhone” and city’s inefficient network capacity.
As reported via The Consumerist AT&T spokesman Fletcher Cook told them in support of their step that “We periodically modify our promotions and distribution channels.”
It seems that they are now very randomly modifying their distribution channels as the latest update tell that the service is restarted and New York customers can now order iPhones via AT&T’s Web site
The reasons behind AT&T’s toggling with their online iPhones order is yet not cleared but yes we can all wait to see what AT&T has to say in support for resuming online iPhone sale.
