Enrollment Stuck in "Processing" for Organization
Hello everyone, I’m currently enrolling as an Organization from Albania and I’ve been stuck on the "Enrolling" status for 8 business days now. I have my D-U-N-S number sorted and everything was submitted. I sent an email last week to the support but I haven't heard back yet. I’ve already sent another support message 2 days ago but no reply so far. I’m curious to hear from others who have enrolled recently (especially in 2026): How long did your organization verification take? Did you receive a verification phone call, or was it just approved via email? For those in the Balkans/Europe, did you have to provide extra local business registry documents (like the QKB extract) manually? I’m trying to time my launch with my Google Play release, so I’m a bit anxious about the "black hole" of waiting. Any experiences or "nudge" tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Unable to accept invite - Not sending verification codes to phone number
I'm having issues accepting an invite to access TestFlight. I may have tried multiple attempts due to my existing email address not being accepted, so I had to create a new email that's not linked to Apple yet and put it in the activation form. However, now I am getting an error, "Verification codes can't be sent to this phone number at this time. Please try again later." This has been an error since yesterday and the resend, verification via call, and text are all not working. I also tried a different phone number and same issue. Can someone help on this, please.

Having issues authorizing payment for Apple Developer Program
Hey guysI’ve been trying to pay for Apple Developer Program enrollment for about a week and still no luck. As well as I got from a small talk with the customer support – Apple never got my money. So it seems like my payment authorization fails all the time. But I don’t know what’s really going on.Have any of you ever had issues like that?Or maybe you just know what’s going on and how to fix it?

Apple Developer Program enrollment pending for almost 2 months – no response
Hi everyone, I’m looking for feedback from developers who may have faced long delays with Apple Developer Program enrollment. I submitted my enrollment request almost 2 months ago and provided all required information. After hearing nothing, I contacted Apple Support and received a case number (102805967127), but it’s been over a week since then with only automated responses. Some context: Apple ID uses a Gmail address (not iCloud) I log in from both macOS and Windows I don’t have an iPhone, only a Mac 2FA is enabled I’m wondering: Is not having an iCloud email or an iPhone known to cause issues? Or is this just a common internal verification backlog? Any shared experiences or advice on how to escalate this would be really helpful. Thanks.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stalled
Enrolled via website for the apple developer account last Jan. 17 and got the e-invoice last Jan. 19. However, until now I still have not received any confirmation from Apple. I thought it was supposed to be 48hrs max only? Worth noting that I started the process in the developer app but had to withdraw it due to incorrect details but when I tried to enroll again, the button was disabled already so I had to do it via website. I also submitted 2 support tickets, one on Jan. 18 and one today, Jan. 20. Both no reply. Anyone else here had the same problem or knows the solution?

Payment charged but Apple Developer Program not activated (no confirmation email)
Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and paid for the membership through the Apple Developer app on my iPhone on January 20, 2025. The membership fee was successfully charged to my debit card. However, I never received any confirmation email, invoice, or receipt for the payment, and the subscription does NOT appear under my Apple ID subscriptions. As of today, my developer account is still not active, and I’m seeing inconsistent information across platforms: In the Apple Developer app, I now see a message saying that I can’t enroll with this account, even though the payment was charged. On the developer.apple.com website, it says that I still need to purchase the membership. I’ve already contacted Apple Developer Support via email, but I haven’t received any response yet. Has anyone experienced a similar issue where: The membership fee was charged, No confirmation or receipt email was received, The subscription does not appear in the Apple ID, And the developer account remains inactive? Any guidance or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Cannot Renew Account
Every time I try to renew my Apple Developer account, I get a message like "This item is not available in your country or region." (I'm in the United States) I reached out to Apple Developer support via email (because Apple Developer does not offer phone options anymore for any support topics on the website), and they gave me the following response. "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." This is ridiculous! I have multiple apps on the App Store and in TestFlight. I use my Apple Developer account to make a living- how is this even allowed? I have never done anything to violate any terms or agreements. Has anyone else been through this issue and how did they get it resolved?

Apple is killing my eyes by keeping the Developer website and App Store Connect in light mode.
Dear Apple, The Apple Developer website and App Store Connect currently remain locked in light mode, which can cause significant eye strain during extended development sessions. It would be greatly appreciated if dark mode — or an automatic system-based appearance option — could be added to make these platforms more eye-friendly for developers. Thank you for considering this improvement.

I've Been Unable to Access my Developer Membership
I purchased the Apple Developer Membership a few days ago and have been unable to access my account. In my account section on the web, it still has the button to complete my purchase, which I've already done and received an order confirmation from Apple for. I've reached out to support by email, but haven't heard anything back. Does anyone have any methods of resolving this or getting phone support?

Apple Developer Program Enrollment Pending
Hi everyone, I am experiencing a serious issue with enrolling in the Apple Developer Program and have been unable to resolve it. I initially applied more than a week ago, but I never received an activation email or any confirmation that my membership has become active. Since there was no progress, I attempted to submit the enrollment multiple times and also withdrew/canceled previous attempts, as I was uncertain about the appropriate course of action. I additionally tried using different credit cards, assuming that the payment method might be the source of the problem. The core issues are as follows: My order/enrollment remains in a “processing” state, I do not receive an activation email, Apple Developer Program Support has not responded. I have already sent more than five emails to support, yet I have received no response and no updates. Has anyone encountered a similar situation before?

Have developer registrations been suspended?
I purchased a developer account approximately 4 days ago, on Saturday. The payment was successfully charged to my card and I have the receipt, but I have not received any approval. The status is still PENDING, and we are about to enter the 5th day without approval. How can this issue be resolved? We are also not receiving any responses to our support tickets.

Unable to purchase Apple Developer Program
I previously had an account that changed devices when purchasing the Apple Developer Program, which prevented me from continuing the purchase. Customer service stated that they did not have the authority to handle it. So I registered a new ID, but I still couldn't register. Now, both accounts are unable to purchase the Apple Developer Program because the button is grayed out. I consulted customer service, and one of the representatives informed me that my identity is no longer eligible for purchasing the Apple Developer Program. I don't want to purchase using someone else's identity. Is there a way to resolve this? I feel like the purchasing process is locked.
