Been trying to get into Developer Prgram since December 2025.
And like many others, it seems the biggest tech company on the planet cannot streamline an enrollment program.
Unless, it’s by design, to test your nerve?
Anyways, I have now ended up paying twice, and still not even a squeak from support.
There is no Developer Support phone number in South Africa, and mails go unanswered.
How is this possible?
$200 out of pocket, and nothing to show.
Cannot even find a method for refunds.
If there are steps to still follow or docs to submit, why take my money, then ask for more info??
But this black hole of SILENCE….
Now that skype is no longer, what other platform will allow me to call the US Support number from South Africa?

Hello,
It has now been more than 72 hours since my Apple Developer Program purchase.
The payment was completed and the invoice was issued.
Order Number: W1302770460
I have not received any response to my previous support requests, and my membership is still not active.
Please escalate this case and complete the manual activation of my membership as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Apple Developer Program
Hi, I'm from India and payment has been deducted for the membership and I have received an email confirming my subscription of the program but I still cannot access my enrolment dashboard. It says "You'll receive an email soon" in my Apple Developer app under "Enrol" and it says Pending on my Apple Account on web. I don't understand why such as a small task is such a problematic thing for Apple. Need help understanding what's going on.
On february 9, I tried to enroll to the developer program, I got charged and received and order number, the next day when I tried to see the status of the enrollment, the order number provided on the email confirming the order was not working, I've tried to get support through email, nothing happens; I've called about 20 times to Apple Support, nothing happens, they said they doesn't have direct communication to the Apple Developer department, I have two weeks plus trying to have an answer on email, and nothing happens, but you know what happened? They completed the charge on my CC.
Hello,
I am experiencing a critical issue with my Apple Developer Program account. I successfully enrolled months ago, and my subscription is active as per my account details. However, I am now unable to access my developer membership features, and when I sign into my account it
redirects me to the enrollment page as if I had never enrolled.
Key details of the issue:
Active subscription: My Apple Developer Program membership is active and set to renew on 17 October 2025. The subscription page confirms this, and the payment was successfully processed.
REVOKED CERTIFICATES: Certificates I created weeks ago have been revoked without any explanation or notification.
No email notifications: I have not received any communication from Apple regarding issues with my account or certificates.
Attempts to Resolve:
Cleared cookies and cache.
Tried logging in on multiple devices and browsers.
Signed out of all devices and logged back in.
Could someone please assist me in understanding why my account is behaving this way? Is there a specific team or channel I should contact to escalate this issue?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Please see the image for reference. This is a 2020 MBP and ive tried over the past few days and its not recognizing that 26 is available for download.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

It seems like your enrollment has been stuck in processing for months without any updates from Apple. Despite repeatedly using the 'contact us' option, you haven't received any feedback.
It has been days I made the payment I have heard nothing from Apple, our deadline is being pushed over and over again we are loosing customers to our competitors.
I have already reached out via the formal support channel but have not received a response beyond the automated acknowledgment.
When I login to my Dev account, I get a banner that says "The updated Apple Developer Program License Agreement needs to be reviewed. In order to update your existing apps and submit new apps to the App Store, the Account Holder must review and accept the updated agreement."However, when I go to Agreements, Tax, and Banking, I see both Free Apps and Paid Apps agreement, but when I click on View, there's nothing for me to accept. It's a pop-up window with a list of countries and a button at the end that says "Close". And that's it. No other action is possible. No other option either under the Action column.So then how can I review and accept it?
My developer account pending for more that 4 days.
When I login to http://developer.apple.com, it show the following message:
Purchase your membership.
To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now.
Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process.
I have already paid the membership fee and got the E-invoice from apple.
Could anyone help to solve this problem?
The Account Holder is no longer able to log into apple (regardless of web-based or device based attempts). The membership will expire soon without access to the account holder.
Both workflows "iforgot.apple.com" and "iforgot.apple.com/unlock" did not lead to an answer email within several days. I tried several times.
So we are almost out of store without any option. Hotline did not show other options.
Any ideas?
ITMS-90078: Missing potentially required entitlement - Your app, or a library that’s included in your app, uses Apple Push Notification service (APNs) registration APIs, but the APS Environment Entitlement isn’t included in the app signature’s entitlements. If your app uses APNs, make sure the App ID is enabled for push notifications in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, sign the app with a distribution provisioning profile that includes the APS Environment Entitlement, and upload a new build to ensure that push notifications function as intended. For details, visit: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/registering-your-app-with-apns.
Initially, I had some issues enrolling in the individual Apple developer program. Then, I contacted support via email, and they finally requested that I verify my identity. I submitted my national ID for verification and then received an email stating that my identity was verified. After that, I tried to enroll in the Apple developer program, but the issue persisted even after they instructed me to proceed. Subsequently, I received an email stating that my identity was not verified. Here is the exact wording from the email: "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." After that, I tried to reach support several times, but there has been no response from them.

I have submitted an Apple Developer enrollment application on 2024-March-18, and it's still "IS BEING PROCESSED". And I have submitted multiple support tickets and asked for the status, and ALL of the replies are "uNDer rEvIEW".
For real? 423 days? How can it possibly take this long? This is beyond unreasonable. I need a real update on my application—enough with the generic responses.
My enrollment ID is 7AR6PGYR9R.
I created a developer account in one country and it was active for few years, now it has expired and I have moved to another country. When I want to change the address under "Membership details > Update your information +" it redirects me to a page and I see the following message
Your account can’t access this page.
There may be certain requirements to view this content.
If you’re a member of a developer program, make sure your Account Holder has agreed the latest license agreement.
So I thought may be I should just go and renew the account, but on the payment page there's no option to change country there as well, which is required as I don't have a card from my previous country.
It is an individual account.
Is there any hope I can resurrect my account?
I cannot renew my membership after it expired in January of 2025. I initially let it lapse, but I decided to renew it. There is nowhere to renew it. There is no renew button in the Developer App, and the web application tells me it expired, but doesn't provide an option to renew. It just tells me to go to the Developer App and click on the Renew button which isn't there.

Hello.
My developer membership is expired. I cannot renew because the renewal option/button does not appears in any device. A banner tells me:
"Any apps you had on the App Store are no longer available for download and you can no longer access membership benefits. If you’d like to renew your membership to reinstate your apps and membership benefits, open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts.If you agreed to the Paid Applications Agreement, you’ll need to agree to it again after renewal in the Agreements, Tax and Banking section of App Store Connect."
However, there's no "Renew" to tap or click anywhere in the app nor in the web.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.

Hello everyone,
I’m hoping to get some guidance or hear from others who may have experienced something similar.
I registered for the Apple Developer Program as a company on January 2nd, 2026
Since completing the registration, I haven’t received any updates, feedback, or requests for additional information. The application still appears to be pending, and I’m unsure if this delay is within the normal timeframe or if there’s something I may have missed.
I understand that company verification can take longer than individual enrollments, but I would appreciate any insight into:
Typical review timelines for company enrollments
Whether there’s a recommended way to follow up with Apple Developer Support
Any steps I can take to help move the process forward
Thanks in advance to anyone who can share their experience or advice.
Best regards,
Curlback
