Convert from individual to organization membership
Hi all, I initiated the request to Apple to convert from individual to organization membership. I’ve been waiting for more than 2 weeks since last email from Apple. Is there any way to escalate it? I am not receiving any further email updates after asking for an update twice. It would be really good at least to know how many days to expect the outcome if Apple could have simply replied so. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

LONG PROGRAM ENROLLMENT PROCESS
I've been trying to enroll my account in a paid Apple Developer Program. I've attempted this for the third time, and the billing is in process according to the bank, yet it has been more than 48 hours and still no response. Even through Apple Support, I have not received a response to my inquiry. Please advise.

Confirmation on the Use of MDM Vendor CSR Certificates in On-Premises MDM Solutions
We are developing an MDM solution. In addition to the cloud-based version, we are also developing an on-premises version of the MDM solution for organizations such as government agencies and other entities for whom using public cloud services is difficult. In such cases, regarding the "MDM vendor CSR certificate" to be included in the on-premises package: Would it be acceptable to use a certificate owned by our company (the MDM vendor)? Or would it be necessary for the client organization to prepare a new certificate themselves?

Request for access to Family Controls entitlement
I have filled the form to request for this access, but it has been 15 days now and I haven’t gotten any feedback. Apple Support said the appropriate team will be in contact with me once it has been approved. It’s been 15 days and still nothing. I just want to know how long it would take, and Apple’s WWDC 2025 is around the corner, I was really looking forward to get this done before then.

Charged for Renewals Despite Being Under Review for 13 Months
Hello everyone. I'm hoping to get some guidance on a unique and difficult situation we've been facing for over a year. Our app was approved and had been live on the App Store for some time. However, 13 months ago, our developer account enrollment was revoked. Since then, our app has remained live on the App Store, but we've been unable to make any updates, fix bugs, or respond to user feedback. We've been trying to resolve this with Apple for over a year, sending countless emails and making numerous phone calls, but we've had no luck getting through to anyone who can help. To make matters even more confusing, we were recently charged for our annual developer program renewal, despite being unable to use the service. This renewal charge has left us in an unclear position. We were starting to lose hope that this issue could ever be resolved, but this recent charge has made us wonder if there's still a chance. We are seeking advice on whether we should continue to hold out hope or if this is a sign we should move on. If anyone has experience with a similar issue or knows of an effective way to escalate this matter to the right people at Apple, your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and any help you can offer.

Signature Validation Issue in Apple Notifications V2 Webhooks
I am writing to bring to your attention a critical issue we are encountering while implementing Apple V2 webhook notifications on our platform. We are currently unable to authorize the token due to signature verification issues. We are unclear about the expected signature and how to validate it correctly. Additionally, we observed that the kid (Key ID), which was available in the header in Apple Pay V1 and used to retrieve the public key, is no longer present in the V2 webhook headers. We have already reviewed the official documentation here: Apple Server Notifications V2, but it does not clarify how to handle the signature validation or proceed. We would appreciate any guidance or documentation that could help us complete this integration successfully. Thank you for your support

Repeated Failure to Enroll in Apple Developer Program – No Reason Provided
Hello, I’ve attempted multiple times to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, but the enrollment consistently fails. Despite reaching out to Apple Support through several emails, I have never received a clear explanation or log details on why the enrollment was not successful. I even requested that my client (with a foreign account) attempt the payment on my behalf, yet the application was still rejected. This suggests the issue is not simply related to payment method or regional restrictions. At this point, I would appreciate clear feedback or error details explaining why the enrollment fails so I can resolve the issue. For reference, here is the Purchase ID issued to me during the attempted enrollment: DWHQ8WFZJH I kindly ask Apple Support or community members with similar experience to assist in resolving this matter.

Delay beyond 75 days - Apple Developer Program Enrolment for non-profit
Applied to the developer program with the waiver for a non-profit that I'm associated with. Application process was initiated on July 4th 2025 and have followed up multiple times since to get an update or clarity on timelines. We have a DUNS number. We are a registered NON PROFIT in INDIA and have the relevant documentation as required by them. We have submitted all of these documents at least twice for review but there's no update from Apple's end. Anyone have any recourse for escalation?

Stuck After Paying – “You’ve already agreed to the Apple Developer Agreement” Loop
Hi, I need help resolving an enrollment issue. When I log into my Apple Developer account on the website, I only see the message: “You’ve already agreed to the Apple Developer Agreement.” After that, nothing else loads and I can’t continue. What I’ve tried: Paid the annual fee (it shows as charged). Logged in from iPhone (Developer app), Mac, Safari, and Chrome. Same error. Cleared cookies, tried private mode, and even changed my email. Contacted normal Apple Support (they couldn’t help). Tried to reach Developer Support but I can’t since I’m technically not enrolled. Other details: I can’t access App Store Connect. My Apple ID birthday is set to 15 October 2000. I’ve already accepted the Developer Agreement. Developer app shows an error whenever I try enrollment there. At this point, I’m stuck in a loop: Apple says I’ve already agreed, but my membership isn’t activated, and I can’t contact the right support channel.

Apple Contact Forms not working
Hi, I need to contact Apple developer support. But on "Call Me" - it get a response to say the email is invalid (it is a telephone number!). I can also see in dev tools it fails with "errorToken": "EMAIL_VALIDATION_FAILED". "errorMessage": "Given emailAddress : xxxx is Invalid", I get the same error on the "Send a Message" form. The other members of my team also have the same problem, so we have no way to contact support.

Enrollment not successful - no reply from German dev Team
We registered an Apple Account and started the enrollment as company. Entered DUNS number and everything. Afterwards we got the mail, there is somthing suspicous, we have to reply to germandev@ why we want to be registered. We found out, that we had a student once who started developing an app and registered themselves with company details. This account seems to be closed, but anyhow, it is mixed now. I tried to write several times to germandev@ team, but we don't get any reply for weeks. Who else can help us? Some phone number? Thanks
