Hi all,
I have two apps stuck in "In Review" status with no response from Apple:
Future Kid App
Apple ID: 6754333416
In Review since: October 15th, resubmitted on October 21st, still in review as of October 22nd, 12:12 AM.
Trade AI
Apple ID: 6753766459
In Review since: October 27th, 9:31 PM, still no update.
Team ID: CQNXC8J5R4
Both apps have been stuck for a long time with no feedback. Has anyone faced similar delays or know how to resolve this? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

I’m having issues enrolling in the Apple Developer Program. My original Apple ID was unable to enroll due to an internal restriction, and after multiple calls with Support (including L2), I was advised to create a new Apple ID and use the same enrollment code I was awarded for being selected as a Swift Student Challenge 2025 winner.
However, when I attempt to redeem the code with the new account, I receive an error stating that the code has already been redeemed. I have never successfully enrolled with the original account, so the code should not be marked as used.
I’ve tried working through Support several times, but I’m still stuck. Could someone please review this issue or issue a new code so I can complete my enrollment?
Thank you in advance for your help.

How do I get a response from anyone after completing this web-form? I have paid subscription, sent ID documents months ago, but still cannot get past this page
Hi Apple Developer Support,
We’re currently facing an issue with our Apple Store Connect account due to the updated Apple Developer Program License Agreement. Our iOS builds are failing with the following error:
Apple 403 detected – Access forbidden. Unable to process request – PLA Update available. You currently don't have access to this membership resource. To resolve this issue, your team's Account Holder, Sonu Chandra, must agree to the latest Program License Agreement.
The challenge is that our Account Holder is currently on medical leave and unavailable, and we’ve been advised not to reach out to her during this time. While we do have multiple team admins on the account, none of them are able to accept the updated agreement.
We kindly request your support in enabling one of the team admins to review and accept the updated license agreement so we can resume our iOS build and release process.
Thank you for your assistance. Thank you in advance for your swift response.
We're unable to renew our developer program with apple because there is no renew button shown to us, neither on the website, mac app nor ios app.
We followed the instructions shown to us on the app connect page on how to renew it. but when where they're saying there should be a renew button, there is none or anywhere else.
How are we suppose to renew? Raised this with a support ticket but haven't received any reply, case ID: 102733260138
How to get this resolved? We don't get any "phone call" option on the support page either.
I am trying to make payment of $99 towards purchase of developer account through credit card but the transaction was not processed. Kindly provide the alternate payment options.
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?
Hello,
I'm trying to renew my Appstore Connect subscription but unfortunately I'm facing problems.
Our Account Holder ID is locked and when he tries to log in an error message keeps showing up saying "This Apple ID has been Locked. Contact your Administrator or Manager to reset your password and unlock your account."
whose the admin or manager in this case?
I contacted the support multiple times and they referred me to this link.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201487
We tried these steps but sadly no luck.
whenever he tries to change the password an error message keep popping up saying "Need to reset your password? Contact your organization’s Administrator or Manager and ask them to reset the password for your Managed Apple ID"

I'm trying to submit a support request to get an issue resolved in my organization's account, but both the phone call-back and email support forms are giving errors whenever I try to submit an issue.
The phone form just says "There was a problem processing your request.", and the email form says "This email address isn’t valid. To update your email address, visit account.apple.com.". But the email address is hard-coded to my account email, and it's the main email for my company which I have been successfully using for months!!
How am I supposed to get in touch to get this blocking issue fixed when all contact methods require your to go through this broken form? I suspect the original issue I was contact support about also has to do with this, since it's titled "Email Verification".

Hello,
My Apple Developer account has recently been flagged for termination on the grounds of “fraudulent or dishonest activity.” The reason given was misleading metadata, specifically related to references to “Nano Banana”.
I want to clarify a few important points:
My app legitimately uses Google’s official API via fal.ai, and I pay for this usage.
My app was published before Google even introduced “Nano Banana” as an internal label in Gemini, so there was no way for me to anticipate a conflict.
“Nano Banana” is not a registered trademark, only a label Google uses internally.
I have already removed every single reference to it from my app and metadata.
Currently, none of my applications contain misleading content, inaccurate metadata, or third-party trademarks. My account is in full compliance with the Developer Program License Agreement and App Review Guidelines.
Despite this, Apple has proceeded with termination. As an independent developer, this feels like a double standard compared to corporate accounts, which are often given the opportunity to fix issues at the app level without losing their entire account.
Has anyone else experienced similar situations? What would be the best way to escalate this fairly so that Apple reviews the case based on the current, compliant state of my apps rather than past misunderstandings?
Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Yunus Emre
We renew our company's Apple Developer Membership annually. According to the update date of November 17, 2025, it's stated that renewal can be done 30 days in advance, but the renewal button doesn't show up.
You can still renew your membership within the next 8 days and your apps will remain available on the App Store during this time. Open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts.
I'm getting this message but renew button is not visible in Developer App or on website. How to to renew?

I'm looking for advice or anyone who's experienced similar delays with nonprofit developer account enrollments.
Timeline:
In mid-September, we had some initial email validation issues during our nonprofit organization enrollment. Senior Advisor Kevin (case 102691832489) resolved those issues and cleared us to continue enrollment on September 16-17.
We continued immediately on September 17th, and our status changed to "Your enrollment is being processed" with enrollment ID UH4UT85YS3.
It's now been 28 days with no status changes, no requests for additional information, and no timeline.
Follow-up attempts:
I've called support three times (Sept 19, 26, and Oct 7). Each time I was told the application is "with a separate department they can't contact." They created additional cases but couldn't provide any updates or access to the reviewing team.
Questions for the community:
Is 28 days normal for nonprofit enrollment processing after continuing? Has anyone found a way to get status updates when regular support can't access the reviewing team? Is there a specific escalation path for nonprofit accounts that differs from standard enrollments?
We're a 501(c)(3) church launching an app for a capital campaign, so the delay is starting to impact our timeline. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Details:
Enrollment ID: UH4UT85YS3
Organization Type: Nonprofit 501(c)(3)
Continued enrollment: Sept 17, 2025
Current status: "Your enrollment is being processed"
Thanks in advance for any guidance.
Hi all,
I obtained a D-U-N-S number, confirmed that it's available for lookup, and submitted a request to upgrade to an Organization account 12 days ago. I then followed up 3 days ago. Still haven't received a response.
Does anyone know if there's anything I need to do to get a response to these inquiries?
Only reason I'm upgrading to Organization account is so that multiple developers can sign debug builds for physical iPhone devices so they can collaborate on my project.
Hello,
we are struggling for hours with the following issue: I have an individual developer account and since yesterday I'm member of developer team with an own organization account.
I have access to an app in the team account as an "App-Manager", also the option "Access to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles" is activated and I can see that it is activated for my account in AppstoreConnect.
In "Apple Developer" I can also see the team and can switch to. But then I do not see the "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles" menu entry. Also the team is not showing up in XCode.
What am I missing?
Thanks and regards
Philipp

Hello Apple Developer Community,
We’ve been attempting to pay the Apple Developer Program enrollment fee for several weeks. Despite trying multiple browsers, credit cards, and devices, the payment consistently fails to process.
We also receive an error when trying to add a card to our profile. We've contacted support multiple times and have been assigned case number 102708816548, but the issue remains unresolved.
Additionally, we’ve been unable to submit a support request via developer.apple.com/support — the site either fails to load the form or does not allow us to proceed with a phone or email request. This has made it extremely difficult to escalate the issue through official channels.
We are a verified business and have followed all instructions provided by support. We’re now seeking help through the forums in hopes of escalating this issue or connecting with someone who has resolved a similar problem.
Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've been away for a period of time and coming back to development I want to clean up my account resources.
It appears as though I have 3 Developer ID Application certificates. I've never released code using any of them, and 2 of them have the exact same expiration date. I assume I created these while under the impression they could be revoked and deleted by myself. But this isn't the case.
The fact that I can only use the expiration date to disambiguate between some them, and also that 2 of them can't be disambiguated is problematic if I were to ever notarise code with them.
How can I get some of these certificates revoked and deleted?
