Apple Developer Program enrollment completely stuck — no emails, no support
Hello! This is already my third post regarding this issue. I have been waiting for almost a month and have sent approximately 10 emails to Apple Developer Program Support. I have received no response at all — no updates, no explanations, and no assistance. What makes this situation particularly unacceptable is that Apple Support is clearly active and responding to similar enrollment issues in other forum threads. Seeing support help others while completely ignoring my case for an entire month is extremely frustrating and difficult to justify. This level of silence from Apple is not just disappointing — it reflects a serious breakdown in the enrollment support process.

There may be an issue with your account that needs to be resolved before you can continue. Please contact support.
I'm encountering an issue while trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program using the mobile app. Every time I attempt to proceed, I receive the following error message: "There may be an issue with your account that needs to be resolved before you can continue." I have verified my account information and followed all the necessary steps. I sent an email to Apple, but I haven’t received a response for several days. I’d be grateful for any help if anyone else has experienced this issue.

Probably the longest Apple Developer enrollment process - 423 days
I have submitted an Apple Developer enrollment application on 2024-March-18, and it's still "IS BEING PROCESSED". And I have submitted multiple support tickets and asked for the status, and ALL of the replies are "uNDer rEvIEW". For real? 423 days? How can it possibly take this long? This is beyond unreasonable. I need a real update on my application—enough with the generic responses. My enrollment ID is 7AR6PGYR9R.

Payment Completed but Developer Account Not Activated – No Response for 6 Days
Hello, I’m writing this here because I’m honestly stuck and unable to reach anyone through official support channels. Order Number: W1466057949 Order Date: 18/02/2026 Case ID: 102824542025 My payment was successfully approved and processed by my bank. The amount has been fully charged. However, my Apple Developer account has still not been activated. I opened a support ticket immediately after noticing the issue. It has now been 6 days, and I have received absolutely no response. There is no active support in Turkey for this issue. When I try calling the Ireland support number, I can only reach an automated system — there is no way to speak to a real person. I currently have no direct contact channel to resolve this. This situation is blocking my development work and causing serious delays. I have completed my payment in good faith, yet I cannot access the service I paid for, and I cannot reach anyone for assistance. If anyone has experienced a similar issue or knows how to escalate this properly, I would greatly appreciate guidance. Thank you.

Unable to Enroll in Developer Program
I've tried to enroll in the developer program 8 days ago. I've submitted contact forms for email response. I've called customer support and they've told me there is no way to actually talk to Developer support outside of filing for a contact us form via the contact us option here in Apple Developer. Today I went to check the status and all of the recent issues I've had are gone. I paid for the membership to Apple Developer program. I have not been emailed or called or contacted in anyway and I still have the option to enroll in the Apple developer program but why would I continue over and over again and throw money away after it? I have my app built and ready for Weatherkit integration and testing but I can't access the resources due to not being enrolled in an active developer program. I literally do not know anywhere else to go for help. What am I supposed to do from here?

Unresolved Apple Developer Program Enrollment Issue
Hello everyone, I am facing a persistent and unacceptable issue with my individual enrollment in the Apple Developer Program that has been ongoing for nearly three months. Despite multiple attempts to communicate with Developer Support, I am continuously receiving the exact same generic statement: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment... couldn't be completed," with no clear explanation or actionable steps provided. This lack of genuine assistance and transparency is deeply frustrating and prevents me from publishing my application. Key Details of the Situation: Apple ID Region: Türkiye Current Residence and Address: United Kingdom (UK) Identity Verification: I used my Turkish passport along with my UK residential address. Enrollment Status/Error: After submission, I received the "Contact us to continue your enrollment" prompt. Case Number: 102720548696 Support Experience: The case has been handled by multiple support staff (Migeylis, Alex), all of whom have provided identical, non-specific template responses, failing to address the core problem. It appears the conflict between my Apple ID region (Türkiye) and my UK physical address/Turkish passport documentation is the likely cause. I am seeking clarification on whether this is a known issue for developers with mixed international details and what concrete steps are required to resolve this ambiguity. Has anyone in the community experienced a similar issue? If so, what was the path to resolution? I urge Apple officials to escalate this matter immediately and provide a specific, helpful, and transparent resolution. Every developer deserves equal and fair treatment in the enrollment process. Thank you in advance for any insights or assistance. Best regards, Onur

Developer Program enrollment still pending after payment
Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program on the evening of December 26, 2025, and the membership fee has already been successfully charged to my bank account. However, my account is still showing a “Pending” status with the message “Subscribe your membership.” At this point, some time has passed and I haven’t received a confirmation email or any follow-up requesting additional information.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stuck — Paid Twice, Still Pending
Hello, I am writing this post because the Apple Developer Program enrollment process is clearly malfunctioning, and I have reached a point where this situation is unacceptable. First payment I initially purchased the Apple Developer Program on December 3rd, 2025 at 16:03 (Turkey time). The payment was fully completed, confirmed by my bank, and I received the official Apple Store receipt. • Order ID: W1557478965 • Amount: 1029 TRY • Status: Completed / Posted Despite this, my account continued to show: • “Purchase your membership” • Enrollment status: Pending • No access to App Store Connect After several days with no response from Apple Support and no activation, I assumed something had gone wrong on Apple’s side. Second payment Because I was completely blocked and received no reply from support or the forums, I made a second payment to rule out any payment failure. • Order ID: W1694587309 • Amount: 1029 TRY • Status: Completed / Posted Current situation At this point: • Two separate payments • Two unique Apple Store order IDs • Zero activation • Zero response from Apple Support • Enrollment still Pending • App Store Connect still inaccessible Support case details: • Apple Support Case ID: 102769533427 • Multiple follow-ups sent • No reply • No action taken This is no longer a delay — this is a system-level failure. I have paid twice for a single Developer Program membership and received nothing in return: no activation, no explanation, and no support. I am formally requesting manual intervention by Apple staff to: 1. Immediately activate my Apple Developer Program membership 2. Investigate and resolve the duplicate payment (refund or clarification) 3. Explain why a paid enrollment can remain blocked with no support response If this forum is monitored by Apple employees, this issue requires urgent escalation. This situation should not happen in a paid developer program. Thank you.

Apple took my money ?
There does not seem to be a good area of this forum to post this, so i just post it. I joined the developer program, i made a payment of 99 US dollars, the money was sent from my bank account to Apple.Com, it said on my developers account that it could take up to 48 hours to get things registered and i would be all set to go with the developers account after that. Well, the money is still gone, and 1-2 hours after i made the payment my account now asks me to Join the program, just like before i joined and made the payment. This was two days ago so i sent a message to apple about this, still no answer from them so i dont feel very happy about this, no way in h*** i am going to make a new payment to try to join again when i already did join and did not ever got my money back. Anyone had any similar issues or know what i should do next ?

Cant login apple account
Hello, I am an Apple Developer and I have been unable to access my Apple ID for more than a week because of a verification code issue. Every time I try to sign in to my Apple ID or manage my banking information, I see this error message: “Too many verification codes have been sent. Enter the last verification code you received or try again later.” The problem is that I am not receiving any SMS verification codes at all, so I cannot enter any “last code”, and I cannot complete the sign-in process. I have already tried the following: Waited more than 24 hours without requesting new codes, several times. Tried signing in from different devices and networks. Confirmed that my phone number is active and can receive other SMS messages from different services. The issue persists and I am effectively locked out of my Apple ID. This is a critical problem for me because it directly affects my Apple Developer work: I cannot sign in to App Store Connect. I cannot add or edit my banking information. I cannot upload my app or submit it for review. I also do not have another phone number that I can add as a trusted phone number, so I cannot simply switch to a different number. I kindly ask for a concrete technical solution or manual intervention for my Apple ID, not just “wait 24 hours and try again”, because I have already done that multiple times and the error is still there. Could you please: check if there is a block or rate limit on verification codes for my account, and help reset it or provide another way to verify my identity and restore access to my Apple ID, or assist me with updating my trusted phone number after verifying my identity? This issue is blocking my ability to continue development and release of my app on the App Store, so I would really appreciate any escalation to the appropriate technical team. Thank you very much for your help. Best regards, Daniil
