Individual to Organization migration pending 2 weeks, cancellation request ignored, live app blocked
Hello, On October 28, 2026, I submitted a request to migrate my Apple Developer Program membership from Individual to Organization (Enrollment ID: 2253F7K9AN). My D-U-N-S number was validated and all company information was accepted. The new team shows as "Krew S.A.S. (Pending)". Since then, my individual membership has been paused, so I can't upload builds for my live app. Every request fails with: "Unable to find a team with the given Team ID to which you belong." On November 2, I asked support to cancel the migration so I could restore my individual membership and ship a critical update. Two weeks later, I still have no response to either the migration or the cancellation, across these cases: 102994314594, 103013185720. Phone support isn't offered in my country (Ecuador), so email is my only channel. My questions: Has anyone successfully gotten a pending migration cancelled? How long did it take? Is there any other channel to reach the enrollment team when cases go unanswered? I have clients and events waiting on this update. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Individual-to-organization conversion pending: status and continuity questions
I submitted a request around October 20, 2026 to convert my individual Developer Program membership to One Click Growth LLC, a California LLC, with a signed consent form. The conversion is still pending, and I haven't received a request for additional documents. I've contacted Developer Support through the contact form and by phone, and I'm waiting for a callback. Konote, our meeting recording and summary app, is in public TestFlight beta. We originally planned to launch in the US, Canada, and Taiwan in mid-November. We're holding the App Store release until the conversion is complete because we want to preserve continuity for users' iCloud Keychain and CloudKit data. Could Developer Support help confirm the following for this case? What stage is the conversion at, and are any documents missing? I can provide the Articles of Organization, Statement of Information, Operating Agreement, and EIN letter immediately. Will this be an in-place conversion that preserves Team ID K4XBCN3483 and the existing App ID prefix, without an App Transfer? Developer Support confirmed an unchanged Team ID in thread 853310, and I'd appreciate confirmation for our case. Will the accepted Paid Apps agreement, Small Business Program enrollment, and pending Private Cloud Compute entitlement application carry over? Please confirm the current stage and any documents I should send next. Eric

Organization enrollment stuck at "documentation is in review" since Oct 30, no emails and no reply to support (Enrollment ID 95K9SCG64P)
Hello Apple Developer Support team, Our organization enrollment has been stuck in document review and I can't find any way to move it forward. Enrollment details: Enrollment ID: 95K9SCG64P Company: BORIS WEBNIX LLC (Wyoming, USA) D-U-N-S: 131124944 Enrollment submitted: October 30, 2026 I am the owner of the company with legal authority to bind it to agreements. What happened so far: During the enrollment I was asked to upload documents for review, but I was never told which documents were needed. I uploaded one PDF containing my passport, the company's Articles of Organization and the EIN confirmation. Since then my account page says: "Your documentation is in review. We received your documents and are processing your enrollment." I have never received any email from Apple about this enrollment: no request for documents, no status update, nothing (spam folder checked as well). I contacted Developer Support twice through the contact form (Membership and Account > Program Enrollment). I have not received a reply to either message, not even an automatic confirmation. Phone support is not offered for this topic on the contact form, so email is my only option. Our app is already live on Google Play and the iOS version is built and tested on real devices. This enrollment is the only thing blocking our App Store release. Could someone from Apple please check Enrollment ID 95K9SCG64P and let me know: Which verification step is still pending (legal entity, D-U-N-S, applicant authority, or something else)? Is anything missing from my side? If so, which documents exactly should I provide, and in what format? Thank you very much for your help. Boris

Paid membership reinstated on Oct 23, account page still redirects to "Need assistance" — 4 support requests unanswered
My Apple Developer Program membership is paid through Oct 9, 2027. After an Apple ID email change, access was restored on Oct 23 (case 103001436567), but developer.apple.com/account still redirects me to the "Need assistance" page. I can't access certificates, keys or App Store Connect. Since then I've opened case 103001373092 and followed up three more times by email (Nov 2, Nov 10 twice). No reply, only auto-responses. I'm paying for a membership I can't use. Could someone from the Developer Program team look at the account or tell me who can? Happy to provide any details privately.

Asked to upload ID, but link never arrived and upload page says no permission (Case 103002021532)
Hello, I'm enrolling in the Apple Developer Program as an individual from Albania. Oct 19: Started enrollment. My account showed "under review, please contact us". Oct 28: Developer Support asked me to upload a government-issued ID through a link sent in a separate email from AppleSupport@email.apple.com. That email never arrived. I checked spam and all Gmail folders. Opening developer.apple.com/contact/file-upload/ directly while signed in shows that I don't have permission to upload files. Nov 3: I purchased the membership and received an order confirmation, but I have not been charged. My account still asks me to complete the purchase. I followed up on Oct 28, Nov 4 and Nov 9 with no reply. Phone support isn't available in Albania. My ID is ready to upload. Could someone from Developer Support enable file upload for my account or resend the request? Case ID: 103002021532 Thank you.

Rejected Due to Blurry ID, Re-application Button Blocked & Support Silent
Hi everyone, I tried enrolling in the Apple Developer Program recently, but my application was unfortunately rejected—most likely because the ID photo I uploaded was slightly blurry. Now, I'm stuck: the re-application button/option in my account is blocked or unavailable, and I cannot submit a new or corrected verification. I've already reached out to Apple Developer Support via email, but I haven't received a response yet. Has anyone experienced this enrollment lock after a photo rejection? How can I reset or unlock the application process to re-upload my documents, or is there a direct way to get Apple Support to manually review or reopen my case?

Individual enrollment paid and invoiced 9 days ago, account still says "Purchase your membership"
Hi, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual on 1 November 2026. I signed the Apple Developer Agreement and paid for the membership the same day. Apple's order confirmation arrived on 1 November and the invoice on 3 November, so the payment has gone through. Nine days later my account still shows "(Pending)" next to my name, and the Account page still says: "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now. Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process." I have not clicked "complete your purchase now" again, because I do not want to be charged twice. On 7 November I contacted Developer Program Support through the Contact Us form. I received the automatic confirmation with a case ID, but no reply since. My app is finished and already available as an open test on Google Play. The Apple account is the only thing between me and TestFlight. Has anyone seen a payment that went through but never got linked to the enrollment? Did anything help, for example a phone call to Developer Support, signing out and in again, or a particular way to reach them? Any advice from Apple staff is very welcome. I can share the case ID and order number privately. Thanks, Roger

Individual enrollment blocked since October 19 — case 103002162355, no ID upload link, phone support unavailable
Hello, I have been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual (United States) since October 19, 2026, and I am still blocked. Timeline: 10/19: I started the enrollment on the website. It did not go through and directed me to contact Developer Support. I wrote to them the same day (case 103002162355). 10/21: I tried the Apple Developer app with the same Apple Account. It says: "Enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple Account." 10/29: First reply from Developer Support, ten days later. I was told I would receive a link to upload my photo ID. The link never arrived (I checked inbox and spam for AppleSupport@email.apple.com). 10/30: I asked for the link to be resent. No reply since. Today: the case page shows "Phone support is currently unavailable," so the only option is email, which has not been answered. Could someone please look at case 103002162355 and either resend the ID upload link, or reset my account so I can enroll and verify my identity in the Apple Developer app? Thank you, Andrey Teplyakov

Apple Developer Program Payment Completed but Membership Still Not Activated After 15 Days
Hello everyone, I purchased an Apple Developer Program membership through the Apple Developer website using my credit card on October 25, 2026. I received an email confirming that my order was successfully placed. However, approximately 15 days have passed, and my membership is still not activated. When I log in to my Apple Developer account, it still asks me to purchase a membership again, as if I had never paid. There is no pending status, no enrollment information, and no explanation regarding my payment. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times, but I haven't received any response or solution. I'm located in Türkiye, and I paid 1,029 TRY for the annual membership. Has anyone experienced the same issue recently? How did you resolve it? Is there any way to escalate this issue or get Apple to manually activate my membership? I really need access to my developer account, and this delay is affecting my work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Apple Developer Program: Pay First, Verify Later, Suspend Access, and Still Charge for the Full Year?
Apple Developer Program: Pay First, Verify Later, Suspend Access, and Still Charge for the Full Year? I want to share my experience with the Apple Developer Program and raise a concern about what I believe is a significant gap in Apple's membership and verification policies. My experience I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and paid the annual membership fee. Apple accepted the payment and activated my membership. However, after activation, my account encountered an internal verification issue. Apple subsequently restricted my account access and requested additional identity and residential address documents. I cooperated fully and submitted all requested documents. My account remained inaccessible for approximately six months while Apple's internal operations team conducted its review. Eventually, Apple completed the document review and restored my account access. I then requested a membership extension to compensate for the approximately six months during which I could not use the paid membership. Apple declined, explaining that memberships operate on fixed annual subscription cycles and that the expiration date could not be adjusted. The bigger problem: A gap in the membership policy This raises some important questions: Why does Apple accept payment and activate a membership before completing any necessary verification? Why can Apple subsequently restrict access for months due to an internal verification process? Why does the membership expiration date continue running while the developer cannot access the paid program? Why is there no mechanism to pause the membership or compensate developers for prolonged restrictions caused by Apple's internal review? Are these circumstances clearly disclosed to developers before they pay the annual membership fee? I completely understand the importance of identity verification, account security and compliance. I am not questioning Apple's right to conduct verification. I am questioning the fairness of charging developers for a full annual subscription while denying them access for a substantial portion of that period. Under this approach, a developer could effectively lose several months of a paid membership without receiving an extension, credit or refund. What I would like Apple to address Apple should consider introducing a transparent policy for situations where: Membership verification is initiated after payment and activation. Accounts are restricted for extended periods during internal reviews. Developers lose access to paid membership benefits through no fault of their own. At a minimum, the membership period should be paused or extended for the duration of an extended restriction, where appropriate. Has anyone else experienced this? I would like to hear from other Apple developers: Has your Developer Program membership been restricted after payment and activation? How long did your verification process take? Did Apple compensate you for the period during which you could not access your membership? Were you offered a membership extension or any alternative resolution? I have an active support case and have formally requested Apple to reconsider its decision. I hope Apple Developer Support and the relevant operations team will address this policy gap. Developers pay for a year of membership. They should have a fair opportunity to use the membership they paid for.

Organization enrollment locked – "exceeded the maximum number of attempts" – case 103010273050, no reply for a week
Hello Developer Support, I am enrolling my company AZP s. r. o. (Slovakia) in the Apple Developer Program as an organization. The D-U-N-S number was accepted, but the enrollment page now shows: "Contact us to continue your enrollment. You've exceeded the maximum number of attempts." I opened case 103010273050 on 3 November and have only received the automatic acknowledgement since then. Could you please reset the verification attempts on my enrollment so I can complete it? I am the managing director with full signing authority and can provide the commercial register extract or take a phone call at any time. Thank you, Adam Tarnóczy

Enrolling, LLC Disregarded company (Non- Us Resident)
Hi There, I´m From Spain with an LLC Company in the USA. Is a Disregarded company, the problem is that when I try to set up the paid apps agreement, Apple display the form W-9 instead of Form W8-BEN (that is for non-us resident) My question is... is this right? Under the name of my company, appear an option that ask me ... "Who is the Beneficial Owner? " You can choose between : Individual, Limited Liability - Disregarded Entity, Limited Liability - Partnership, Other... I choose Limited Liability - Disregarded Entity I m not sure if the form W-9 is the right for me because my other online business is about selling books on amazon and there the form that I m using is W8-BEN

Individual enrollment stuck on Pending after payment (invoice MD27706621, Case ID 103015007971)
Hello Apple Developer Support team and community, I paid the US$99.00 Apple Developer Program fee on November 4, 2026, but my enrollment still shows "Pending" and the account page still says "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now." It looks like the payment was not linked to my enrollment. Details: Enrollment type: Individual Country: Brazil Payment date: November 4, 2026 (US$99.00) Invoice: MD27706621 Web order: D005444725 Sales order: AFJ0470813 Case ID: 103015007971 (Membership and Account, Program Enrollment). I wrote again on November 8 and have had no reply yet. What I have tried: Emailed Apple Developer Support twice (October 31 and November 8). Phone support shows as "currently unavailable" on the contact page. I did not pay again, to avoid a duplicate charge. Could someone from the Apple Developer team please confirm that the payment is linked to my enrollment and activate my membership? I need it to test and distribute my app with TestFlight, and my project is waiting on this. I can share more details privately through the official support channel if needed. Thank you, Vinicius Melo

Charged $99 for Apple Developer Program but enrollment blocked single name from Indonesia, anyone dealt with this?
So I've been dealing with this for over 2 weeks and honestly losing my mind a bit. Background: I'm Indonesian. In Indonesia it's totally legal and common to have a single name on your ID, no first or last name, just one name. When I filled out the enrollment form I put the same name in both fields since it required both. What happened: Got charged $99, Apple invoice confirmed, bank confirmed Developer portal: "your enrollment could not be completed" Tried the Developer app: "enrollment through app could not be completed on this account" Support has replied twice basically saying "try the Developer app" — which doesn't work I have an open case but it's going in circles. Has anyone here dealt with single-name enrollment issues with Apple Developer? Especially from Indonesia or India or anywhere with similar naming conventions? Or any tips for actually getting a human at Apple to manually fix this? Email support feels like a wall.

Enrollment blocked "exceeded the maximum number of attempts", no support response
Our organization enrollment was accepted, but all payment attempts failed. Now the enrollment page shows "You've exceeded the maximum number of attempts. Please contact us." and the Apple Developer app says enrollment is not available for this account. We opened case 30000006078344 on November 5 and have not received any response. Could Apple Developer Support please look into this case?

Individual enrollment "could not be completed" after Support asked me to resubmit my address – no reply since Oct 31
Hi, I've been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual since October 18, 2026, and I'm stuck. Timeline: Oct 18: Enrollment status showed "under review. Please contact us." I opened a support case. Oct 27: Developer Support replied that they had made changes on their end and asked me to resubmit my address in the required format. Oct 27: I resubmitted at developer.apple.com/enroll and got "Your enrollment could not be completed at this time." I never reached the payment step. Oct 27 and Oct 31: I replied to the case by email and through the case form. No response since. Details: Apple Account region: Türkiye. I'm a Turkish citizen paying with my own Turkish card. I live in Northern Cyprus. The address I entered matches my official government residence record. My surname contains a Turkish letter (ü) on my ID and Apple Account. The enrollment form doesn't accept it, so I entered it without the diacritic. I haven't created another Apple Account or started a second enrollment, to avoid duplicates. My open support case number is 103000536055. I can share my Enrollment ID privately if needed. Could someone from Apple Developer Support please look at my enrollment? I can provide my national ID card and an official residence document if needed. Thank you.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stalled
Last week I started the enrollment in the Apple Developer program. While doing the KYC and uploading my valid german driving licence, the process was halted with the message of ID Verification Rejected - Please contact apple support. Since them I have tried multiple times to reach the support by both calling as well as emails and no success to reach anyone or get any reply. Did anyone had a similar issue and managed to clarify this with Apple support or get past this issue ? Is it worth creating another Apple account and try the process there too ? Everything feels like such a blackbox and I really don't know what to do next. Any advice ?

Individual enrollment blocked since October 19 — case 103002162355, no ID upload link, phone support unavailable
Hello, I have been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual (United States) since October 19, 2026, and I am still blocked. Timeline: 10/19: I started the enrollment on the website. It did not go through and directed me to contact Developer Support. I wrote to them the same day (case 103002162355). 10/21: I tried the Apple Developer app with the same Apple Account. It says: "Enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple Account." 10/29: First reply from Developer Support, ten days later. I was told I would receive a link to upload my photo ID. The link never arrived (I checked inbox and spam for AppleSupport@email.apple.com). 10/30: I asked for the link to be resent. No reply since. Today: the case page shows "Phone support is currently unavailable," so the only option is email, which has not been answered. Could someone please look at case 103002162355 and either resend the ID upload link, or reset my account so I can enroll and verify my identity in the Apple Developer app? Thank you, Andrey Teplyakov

Apple Developer Program Payment Completed but Membership Still Not Activated After 15 Days
Hello everyone, I purchased an Apple Developer Program membership through the Apple Developer website using my credit card on October 25, 2026. I received an email confirming that my order was successfully placed. However, approximately 15 days have passed, and my membership is still not activated. When I log in to my Apple Developer account, it still asks me to purchase a membership again, as if I had never paid. There is no pending status, no enrollment information, and no explanation regarding my payment. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times, but I haven't received any response or solution. I'm located in Türkiye, and I paid 1,029 TRY for the annual membership. Has anyone experienced the same issue recently? How did you resolve it? Is there any way to escalate this issue or get Apple to manually activate my membership? I really need access to my developer account, and this delay is affecting my work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Apple Developer Program: Pay First, Verify Later, Suspend Access, and Still Charge for the Full Year?
Apple Developer Program: Pay First, Verify Later, Suspend Access, and Still Charge for the Full Year? I want to share my experience with the Apple Developer Program and raise a concern about what I believe is a significant gap in Apple's membership and verification policies. My experience I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and paid the annual membership fee. Apple accepted the payment and activated my membership. However, after activation, my account encountered an internal verification issue. Apple subsequently restricted my account access and requested additional identity and residential address documents. I cooperated fully and submitted all requested documents. My account remained inaccessible for approximately six months while Apple's internal operations team conducted its review. Eventually, Apple completed the document review and restored my account access. I then requested a membership extension to compensate for the approximately six months during which I could not use the paid membership. Apple declined, explaining that memberships operate on fixed annual subscription cycles and that the expiration date could not be adjusted. The bigger problem: A gap in the membership policy This raises some important questions: Why does Apple accept payment and activate a membership before completing any necessary verification? Why can Apple subsequently restrict access for months due to an internal verification process? Why does the membership expiration date continue running while the developer cannot access the paid program? Why is there no mechanism to pause the membership or compensate developers for prolonged restrictions caused by Apple's internal review? Are these circumstances clearly disclosed to developers before they pay the annual membership fee? I completely understand the importance of identity verification, account security and compliance. I am not questioning Apple's right to conduct verification. I am questioning the fairness of charging developers for a full annual subscription while denying them access for a substantial portion of that period. Under this approach, a developer could effectively lose several months of a paid membership without receiving an extension, credit or refund. What I would like Apple to address Apple should consider introducing a transparent policy for situations where: Membership verification is initiated after payment and activation. Accounts are restricted for extended periods during internal reviews. Developers lose access to paid membership benefits through no fault of their own. At a minimum, the membership period should be paused or extended for the duration of an extended restriction, where appropriate. Has anyone else experienced this? I would like to hear from other Apple developers: Has your Developer Program membership been restricted after payment and activation? How long did your verification process take? Did Apple compensate you for the period during which you could not access your membership? Were you offered a membership extension or any alternative resolution? I have an active support case and have formally requested Apple to reconsider its decision. I hope Apple Developer Support and the relevant operations team will address this policy gap. Developers pay for a year of membership. They should have a fair opportunity to use the membership they paid for.

Organization enrollment locked – "exceeded the maximum number of attempts" – case 103010273050, no reply for a week
Hello Developer Support, I am enrolling my company AZP s. r. o. (Slovakia) in the Apple Developer Program as an organization. The D-U-N-S number was accepted, but the enrollment page now shows: "Contact us to continue your enrollment. You've exceeded the maximum number of attempts." I opened case 103010273050 on 3 November and have only received the automatic acknowledgement since then. Could you please reset the verification attempts on my enrollment so I can complete it? I am the managing director with full signing authority and can provide the commercial register extract or take a phone call at any time. Thank you, Adam Tarnóczy

Hi There, I´m From Spain with an LLC Company in the USA. Is a Disregarded company, the problem is that when I try to set up the paid apps agreement, Apple display the form W-9 instead of Form W8-BEN (that is for non-us resident) My question is... is this right? Under the name of my company, appear an option that ask me ... "Who is the Beneficial Owner? " You can choose between : Individual, Limited Liability - Disregarded Entity, Limited Liability - Partnership, Other... I choose Limited Liability - Disregarded Entity I m not sure if the form W-9 is the right for me because my other online business is about selling books on amazon and there the form that I m using is W8-BEN

Individual enrollment stuck on Pending after payment (invoice MD27706621, Case ID 103015007971)
Hello Apple Developer Support team and community, I paid the US$99.00 Apple Developer Program fee on November 4, 2026, but my enrollment still shows "Pending" and the account page still says "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now." It looks like the payment was not linked to my enrollment. Details: Enrollment type: Individual Country: Brazil Payment date: November 4, 2026 (US$99.00) Invoice: MD27706621 Web order: D005444725 Sales order: AFJ0470813 Case ID: 103015007971 (Membership and Account, Program Enrollment). I wrote again on November 8 and have had no reply yet. What I have tried: Emailed Apple Developer Support twice (October 31 and November 8). Phone support shows as "currently unavailable" on the contact page. I did not pay again, to avoid a duplicate charge. Could someone from the Apple Developer team please confirm that the payment is linked to my enrollment and activate my membership? I need it to test and distribute my app with TestFlight, and my project is waiting on this. I can share more details privately through the official support channel if needed. Thank you, Vinicius Melo

Charged $99 for Apple Developer Program but enrollment blocked single name from Indonesia, anyone dealt with this?
So I've been dealing with this for over 2 weeks and honestly losing my mind a bit. Background: I'm Indonesian. In Indonesia it's totally legal and common to have a single name on your ID, no first or last name, just one name. When I filled out the enrollment form I put the same name in both fields since it required both. What happened: Got charged $99, Apple invoice confirmed, bank confirmed Developer portal: "your enrollment could not be completed" Tried the Developer app: "enrollment through app could not be completed on this account" Support has replied twice basically saying "try the Developer app" — which doesn't work I have an open case but it's going in circles. Has anyone here dealt with single-name enrollment issues with Apple Developer? Especially from Indonesia or India or anywhere with similar naming conventions? Or any tips for actually getting a human at Apple to manually fix this? Email support feels like a wall.

Our organization enrollment was accepted, but all payment attempts failed. Now the enrollment page shows "You've exceeded the maximum number of attempts. Please contact us." and the Apple Developer app says enrollment is not available for this account. We opened case 30000006078344 on November 5 and have not received any response. Could Apple Developer Support please look into this case?

Individual enrollment "could not be completed" after Support asked me to resubmit my address – no reply since Oct 31
Hi, I've been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual since October 18, 2026, and I'm stuck. Timeline: Oct 18: Enrollment status showed "under review. Please contact us." I opened a support case. Oct 27: Developer Support replied that they had made changes on their end and asked me to resubmit my address in the required format. Oct 27: I resubmitted at developer.apple.com/enroll and got "Your enrollment could not be completed at this time." I never reached the payment step. Oct 27 and Oct 31: I replied to the case by email and through the case form. No response since. Details: Apple Account region: Türkiye. I'm a Turkish citizen paying with my own Turkish card. I live in Northern Cyprus. The address I entered matches my official government residence record. My surname contains a Turkish letter (ü) on my ID and Apple Account. The enrollment form doesn't accept it, so I entered it without the diacritic. I haven't created another Apple Account or started a second enrollment, to avoid duplicates. My open support case number is 103000536055. I can share my Enrollment ID privately if needed. Could someone from Apple Developer Support please look at my enrollment? I can provide my national ID card and an official residence document if needed. Thank you.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stalled
Last week I started the enrollment in the Apple Developer program. While doing the KYC and uploading my valid german driving licence, the process was halted with the message of ID Verification Rejected - Please contact apple support. Since them I have tried multiple times to reach the support by both calling as well as emails and no success to reach anyone or get any reply. Did anyone had a similar issue and managed to clarify this with Apple support or get past this issue ? Is it worth creating another Apple account and try the process there too ? Everything feels like such a blackbox and I really don't know what to do next. Any advice ?
