No response from Apple Developer Support after 1 week (Case ID: 102818054039)
Hello everyone, I’m posting here to see if anyone has experienced a similar issue or can advise on next steps. I submitted a support request to Apple Developer Support over a week ago and received the automated confirmation, but I haven’t received any follow-up or response yet. Case ID: 102818054039 I’ve already been charged USD 99.00 for the Apple Developer Program, and the payment was successful. Below are some of the relevant details for reference: Product: Apple Developer Program Invoice Number: MC47999846 Invoice Date: January 29, 2026 Web Order Number: D004733307 Sales Order Number: AER8645015 At this point, I’m just looking for a status update or guidance on what to do next. If anyone has suggestions on how to get a response from Apple Developer Support or escalate the issue, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any help.

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.

Issue with Renewal of Apple Developer Membership
I am reaching out regarding an issue with renewing my Apple Developer membership. For the past two days, I have been in contact with support but am still unable to view the renewal options under my Apple Developer account. Additionally, I am not seeing an option to initiate a call when selecting "Program Purchase and Renewal" as the category for support assistance. Could you please assist in resolving this issue? Access to the renewal option is critical for maintaining our development processes, and I would appreciate any guidance or escalation that might expedite a resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Apple Developer Program Enrollment Pending after payment
Hi everyone, I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program on Tuesday afternoon, November 11th, 2025. The payment has already been charged to my bank account, but my account still shows the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership”. It’s now been several days, and I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information. I already contacted Apple Support by email, but I’d like to know if other developers have experienced the same situation and how long it took before their account was activated. Thanks in advance for your help and feedback! — Ramesh

Developer Enrollment
A couple days ago I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual, filled out my address and payment information, paid the fee, my bank account got charged, and I received an email with a receipt and order number. The email with the receipt says the following: To access your membership resources and benefits, visit Account on the Apple developer website. Simply sign in with the Apple ID you used to enroll. Please note that no package will be shipped to you, and you can begin using your membership resources right away." If I click on my order number it says: "Enrollment Complete", "Electronically Delivered(Completed)", and "Thanks for being a part of the Apple Developer Program.". However, when I sign in to my account on developer.apple.com, and then click on account, it says "Pending", "Purchase your membership." and, "To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now.", If I already paid and my order says, "Enrollment Complete", why do I still not have access to sign any builds. I would think this would be instant approval being that I live in the US, and have already been charged, but I guess not. Has anyone else had this happen to them? If so what was the resolution?

How can I have my app developed with XCode in my iphone forever?
So I just managed to build one app for personal use that I want to use daily in my iphone. However, once installed in my device through XCode, after one week the application is no longer available. I'm aware about the one week trial for free users and one year for a paid account, but... for real? Isn't there an alternative? And if not... does it means that in order to use my app for let's say 5 years I will have to pay 500$? Is just a bit crazy to think about it but I did look on the internet and did not found a clear information about how this works. Thank you in advance :)

Frustrated - enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed
Hi, I tried to apply Enroll in Apple Developer Program in the mobile app and I got this error: "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program is under review. Please contact us." Then I did contact Apple by phone as the error message says. I got the response as: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed. We are unable to continue with your enrollment at this time." I am already shocked - so I asked what can I do? Answer - nothing. Is this normal to not get a response what's the reason that is blocking me to enroll the program ?

Charged Twice for Apple Developer Program – Same iCloud, Can I Get a Refund?
Hi everyone, I’m posting this to ask for advice and see if anyone has experienced a similar issue with the Apple Developer Program subscription. On July 9th, 2025, I registered for the Apple Developer Program via the Apple Developer app on my iPhone using my main iCloud account (Apple ID). The expected annual fee was 2,299,000 VND (~$99). However, I just checked my billing history and saw that I was charged twice for the same subscription, both under the same Apple ID / iCloud account, on the same day. Key Details: I only enrolled once. Both charges are labeled “Apple Developer Program”, exactly the same amount (2,299,000 ₫). The payments were made through the App Store, not via the website. My account on developer.apple.com/account still shows “Enroll Now” — meaning I haven't been activated yet. I have not received any welcome email either. My questions: Is it possible to request a refund for one of the charges, since both payments came from the same iCloud account and clearly refer to the same subscription? Has anyone else encountered this issue? How long did it take Apple to respond? Was your refund request approved? Should I wait for Apple to activate my account, or should I escalate the issue now? I’ve already submitted a refund request through https://reportaproblem.apple.com, but I’m posting here in case someone has more experience or insights. Thanks in advance!

Can I access Enterprise APIs for visionOS (main camera) with an individual developer account?
Hello, my name is Kanazawa Kenta, and I am a university student currently conducting research and development using visionOS. In my project, I would like to access the main camera using the Enterprise APIs for visionOS. However, when I try to request permission or view the documentation, I receive the following message: "Your account can’t access this page. There may be certain requirements to view this content. You must be the Account Holder of an Apple Developer Program for Organizations or an Apple Developer Enterprise Program to view this page." I am currently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual. My question is: Is it possible to use the Enterprise APIs with an individual developer account? If not, what are the available options for students or researchers who wish to use these APIs for academic purposes? I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how I can gain access, or alternative ways to use the main camera for research in visionOS. Thank you for your help. Best regards, Kanazawa Kenta

Apple Developer Program: Payment confirmed, account stuck on “Pending” / “Enroll Now”
Hi, On Jan 23 I purchased the Apple Developer Program membership via the Apple Developer app on iPhone. The payment went through successfully and I received the confirmation email and invoice. However, when I sign in to developer.apple.com, my account still shows “Pending” and redirects me to “Purchase your membership / Complete your purchase”, asking me to pay again. My Apple ID subscriptions page shows the Developer membership as active (with an end date), but: Developer portal: Pending, prompts to purchase again Apple Developer app (Account screen): still shows Enroll Now / membership not active The web flow displays an Enrollment ID (I can share masked) What I’ve tried: Confirmed I’m using the same Apple ID everywhere Signed out, cleared cookies, tried private/incognito browser Waited well beyond 48 hours (it’s been ~1 week) I do not want to pay twice. This looks like a duplicate/unfinished enrollment or the paid membership not being properly attached/activated for my Apple ID. Has anyone experienced this and found a workaround? Any advice on the fastest way to get Apple to attach/activate the paid membership and close the pending enrollment? Thanks.

Cannot Renew Account
Every time I try to renew my Apple Developer account, I get a message like "This item is not available in your country or region." (I'm in the United States) I reached out to Apple Developer support via email (because Apple Developer does not offer phone options anymore for any support topics on the website), and they gave me the following response. "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." This is ridiculous! I have multiple apps on the App Store and in TestFlight. I use my Apple Developer account to make a living- how is this even allowed? I have never done anything to violate any terms or agreements. Has anyone else been through this issue and how did they get it resolved?

Enrollment stuck after identity verification via special upload link (non-local passport) — Case ID 102795934998
Hi Apple Developer Support / Community, My Apple Developer Program enrollment is stuck due to identity verification. Country/region: Australia (I’m currently in Australia) Passport: non-local passport (Japanese) The Apple Developer app rejects non-local passport uploads automatically, so Apple Support instructed me to upload documents via a special upload link. Phone support confirmed the documents were received, but there has been no progress for over 2 weeks. I also submitted the Apple Developer Program Support contact form, but have not received any reply. Case ID: 102795934998 I understand the community can’t access my account details. I’m posting to ask: Is there any way to get this routed to the Identity Verification / Enrollment Operations queue? What exact next step should I request from support to unblock enrollment? Has anyone experienced a similar “special upload link” process and long delays? I need this resolved to publish my iOS app. Any guidance or escalation path would be appreciated. Thank you.
