Membership Expired
Since a week I am facing issue because of which I am unable to send critical updates of my app. In app store connect, It says "Developer Program Membership Expired Your membership has expired, and your apps have been removed from the App Store until you renew your membership. To renew, a user with the Account Holder role must sign in and renew the membership on the Apple Developer website. Learn More." while in developer.apple.com it says Sorry, you can’t enroll at this time. Your Apple Account is already associated with the Account Holder of a membership. The email is tushant at konyct.com and its account holder and admin. Apple developer site says I am account holder, app store connect says login with account holder email. Even users and access proofs that that email is account holder. I cannot access certificates, identities as well. I have got an email saying accept agreements by Apr 15, 2026 but when i go to agreements page I dont even see "Accept" or "Agree" like button. I have created many tickets and its been more than a week I am not getting any response from support team. Its been not even proper 2 months I paid $99 and it says my membership expired nor I get any help or time from support team.

Apple Developer Program membership not active after 18 days (Order No: MM27QWKKGG)
Hello, I purchased the Apple Developer Program membership on March 25, 2026. Although I received the invoice and the payment was successfully processed, my account is still not active. I cannot access App Store Connect or developer resources. It has been 18 days since the purchase. My Order Number is MM27QWKKGG. Has anyone experienced such a long delay? Who should I contact to expedite this process, as I've already waited much longer than the standard 48-hour period? Thank you in advance.

Payment taken but Apple Developer enrollment still stuck on "Complete Purchase"
On April 8, 2026, I paid for my individual Apple Developer Program membership and received an invoice (Order ID: D004747265). However, my developer account still shows "To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now" and the status is "Pending." It looks like the payment hasn't been linked to my enrollment. I've reached out to Apple Developer Support twice but haven't heard back. Could this be related to my region (Belarus)? Has anyone else experienced the same issue — payment successful but enrollment still asks to complete purchase — especially from a region like Belarus? How did you resolve it? Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Apple Developer account access issue — Error -20209 after password reset
Hello I need help with my Apple Developer account access. I am trying to run an iOS build through EAS/Expo, but the login to the Apple Developer Portal fails with this error: “Authentication with Apple Developer Portal failed! Apple Service Error -20209. This Apple Account has been locked for security reasons. Visit iForgot to reset your account.” I have already gone through the iForgot recovery flow and changed my password successfully. I can access my Apple account and Apple Developer site in the browser using the new password. Even after that, I still receive the same error when the build process tries to authenticate with the Apple Developer Portal. Could you please confirm whether there is still a security lock, restriction, or other issue on my Apple Developer account that is preventing access through developer services? Thank you.

Individual enrollment pending since April 1, payment processed, no support response
I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual on April 1st, 2026. The $99 payment was charged to my card. I have received subscription confirmation email on April 1st. However, my account at developer.apple.com/account still shows "Pending" status and displays a "Purchase your membership — complete your purchase now" message, as if no payment was made. I have contacted Apple Developer Support several times through the official contact form from April 4 only to get no response. I have received zero responses to any of these emails. My Case ID is 102861052988. I'm trying to launch my iOS app and this delay is blocking my entire submission timeline. Thank you.

Enrollment stuck on "Pending" after receiving invoice - normal timeline?
Hello everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and completed my payment this past Thursday on 9th April. I have already received the official invoice for the transaction. However, my account status is still showing as "Pending" on the developer portal, and I am getting an error when trying to log in to App Store Connect. Has anyone else experienced a delay like this recently? Since it's the weekend, I know support is closed, but I'm wondering how long it typically takes for an account to become fully active once the business week starts. Any insights into recent wait times would be appreciated!

How long does manual verification take for Developer Enrollment in 2026?
I paid for my Apple Developer enrollment on 9th April, and I received the official invoice. However, my account status is still showing as "Pending" and I cannot access App Store Connect. I suspect it was flagged for manual review because the credit card used belongs to a family member, so the name doesn't match the Apple ID. Has anyone else experienced this recently? How long did it take for support to clear the pending status once the work week started?

Individual enrollment pending since April 6 — payment processed, no activation, no support response
I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual on Monday, April 6, 2026. The $99 payment was charged to my card and posted on April 7, 2026. I have bank confirmation of the charge. However, my account at developer.apple.com/account still shows "Pending" status and displays a "Purchase your membership — complete your purchase now" message, as if no payment was made. I have contacted Apple Developer Support three times through the official contact form: Tuesday, April 7 Thursday, April 9 Saturday, April 11 I have received zero responses to any of these emails. My Case ID is 102863102199. I do not want to click "complete your purchase now" as I've already been charged and don't want to be billed twice. Could someone from the Apple Developer team please look into this and activate my membership? I'm trying to launch my iOS app and this delay is blocking my entire submission timeline. Thank you.

Delays & No Communication on Apple Developer Enrollment
I enrolled in the Apple Developer program this past Monday, five days ago. The $99 charge was processed successfully. According to the Apple Developer portal, the account can take up to 48 hours to be provisioned. It has now been well beyond that, and I've received no communication from Apple Developer about what's going on. I filed a support ticket yesterday morning and have gotten no response. Has anyone else experienced these delays? Perhaps it's gotten worse in recent months as AI has made it so easy to develop? I have read elsewhere that the reason for this delay is an internal siloing between developer and user accounts. I get that Apple might need to put some gatekeeping in place for developer accounts, but this amount of delay seems ridiculous, and the lack of communication is really frustrating. I'm an indie developer trying to sell my products. The lack of support from Apple is costing me money with each day of delay. Anyone have similar experiences or advice on speeding up the process?

How to disconnect my personal ID from Company ID
Hi, I had an LLC (which is not dissolved). I had created a developer account for the company which was tied to my personal ID. Now that the company no longer exists, I want to sign up for a developer account using my personal ID so that I can publish apps as an individual. The problem is, when I login to my personal account, it shows the same Team ID as my company account. Talking to support has not helped, so turning to the community for some guidance and help. What is one supposed to do when the company goes out of business or close doors? Is there no way to delete a company account and release your personal ID from it? If anyone here knows how to do this, that would be a great help. Thanks

Update on the arrival of swift code challenge rewards
Hi, I’m a winner of the Apple Swift Student Challenge and wanted to ask about a couple of things. It has been around two weeks since I received the winning notification, but I haven’t received any update regarding the delivery of the AirPods Max (2th generation). Additionally, I wanted to check on the Apple Developer Program upgrade that is included with the award. My account doesn’t appear to be upgraded yet. Could you please confirm the timeline for both the prize shipment and the developer program upgrade, or let me know if anything is required from my side? Just want to make sure everything is on track. Thank you! Best regards, Kiaan
