Organization Account Stuck in Pending After Renewal Payment & Account Holder Change

Hello,

Our organization Apple Developer account has been in pending status for over 30 days and we need guidance.

Timeline:

  • Paid annual $99 membership renewal fee (payment processed successfully)
  • Changed Account Holder as required
  • Submitted verification documents (passport, employment letter, business registration)
  • Received response that verification could not be completed
  • Updated Apple ID information to match passport exactly
  • Sent follow-up email 30+ days ago - no response since

Current status: Account shows "pending" Payment status: Successfully processed

We have contacted support multiple times but haven't received updates for over a month. This is severely impacting our business.

Questions:

  1. Has anyone experienced similar issues with account holder verification?
  2. What additional steps can we take?
  3. Is there an escalation process we should follow?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the post. Thanks for your patience with the developer account.

Your question seems related to Developer Account I would recommend you to contact the developer account support at https://developer.apple.com/support/ to make sure they are aware of the issue.

We appreciate your interest in participating in the forums! These forums are for questions about developing software and accessories for Apple platforms.

Hope gets resolved quickly.
