I am in the middle of trying to get an app approved for beta release and the back and forth with the App Store reviewers has been incredibly frustrating and concerning.
On Tuesday, I created an app record for my app but quickly realized I made it under the wrong account- I'm working for a company that has a few brands under it's umbrella, and I was under the wrong account when I created the app record.
Rather than wait several days to get Apple's approval to transfer app ownership, I decided to delete that app record and create a new one under the proper account. Worst mistake of my life.
Now, Apple is insisting that the new app record is spam despite my clarification that I own the other app record and that it was deleted before the new one was created. I have no choice but to believe that somebody else is using our branding and asset somewhere in the App Store that I can't see.
Does anybody know how I can resolve this? It should have never taken me the whole week to make an app available on test flight and my stakeholders are not pleased, and I have no clear path towards resolution that will allow me to use the proper branding with the proper company account.
App review refuse to offer any solutions, I am stuck with a brand name that I can't use because it's associated with an app I already deleted.
