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.

Testing Significant Location Change
We are currently developing a research-based iOS application that relies heavily on background capabilities, specifically Significant Location Change. We are using CLLocationManager.startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges(). During development, when using Debug → Simulate Location in Xcode, we receive a location update only once. Subsequent simulated location changes do not trigger additional callbacks, which makes testing and development quite cumbersome. Are there any tools, commands, or workflows (e.g., via Xcode, Instruments, or system-level simulation) to reliably simulate multiple significant location change callbacks for testing purposes? If there aren't such tools, how do I test this behaviour reliably, robustly and rigidly?

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?

Unable to Renew Dev Subscription - My Never Ending Saga
Each year I get my renewal email from Apple, however, since 2019 (yes, this is the 4th year in a row) I've been unable to renew due to this infamous "Please enter fewer characters" error message. Each time I've had to open a support case, talk to someone on the phone, they take all of my details along with screenshots, etc. and manually renew my subscription. Once they've charged my card I never hear from them again and issue never gets resolved. IDK if any Apple Dev Support folks actually use this forum but this is ridiculous.

Random issues can not create developer accounts
I can't create a developer account. Setting to admin role does not work, follow the invite and then verify email, after that get shown a phone prompt, used every number I have that has SMS, or tried callbacks... { "service_errors" : [ { "code" : "-28248", "message" : "Verification codes can’t be sent to this phone number at this time. Please try again later.", "suppressDismissal" : false } ], "hasError" : true }

URGENT: App Store Migration Blocked 14+ Days Due to a new build Error — Need Pause to Upload New Build
Hello Apple Developer Support and Community, RE: #102631841612 I am currently stuck in App Store migration hell. My app’s migration has been blocked for over 14 days due to an error in our latest build and it was during a prolonged and delayed migration with Apple. I have requested 14 days now to pause the migration to allow us to upload a new build. This is ruining my brand and reputation. I'm at the hands of Apple support but this truly is unacceptable service. I need HELP. PAUSE the migration asap. I have emailed Apple support repeatedly for two weeks requesting a pause on the migration so I can update a new build, but no response so far. I’ve also tweeted, tagged Apple’s channels, and followed all official steps with no success. This delay is severely impacting my users and business, and I need an immediate resolution or a way to pause the migration so I can fix this error and get my app working again. Please, if anyone from Apple Developer Support or the community has advice, contact, or workaround to resolve this, I would greatly appreciate it. I am including screenshots of the error (without sensitive info) below. Thank you for your urgent attention.

Developer account payment issue
Im having trouble paying for my new developer account and it seems its been an ongoing issue for new enrollments. Has anyone else had this issue? If so how did you manage to resolve it? I keep getting "Your payment authorisation failed on card. Please verify your information and try again, or try another payment method." I tried different cards, called my bank, tried on safari, tried on the app and been back and forth with support for a couple of weeks no with no solution. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

problem Apple Developer Program Apple Developer Program Enrollmentwith
I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, but I keep encountering this error message: "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time." Initially, I tried using a newly created Apple ID, and when that didn’t work, I attempted it with my older Apple ID. Unfortunately, I received the same error both times. Has anyone experienced this issue or knows what might be causing it? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Org Developer Account Stuck in "Your enrollment is being processed"
I applied for an Apple Developer Organization account more than two weeks ago, but I have not received any further information regarding the registration process. Apple previously requested some supporting documents, which I submitted as instructed. I have also followed up, but have yet to receive a response. Has anyone experienced a similar situation? If so, what steps did you take to resolve it?

Hey everyone, I having this error when I try to enroll. "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time." I tried to contact Apple Support by phone and I received the information: "We can't identify/verify you, then I can't help" End of conversation... My account is maybe 10 years old, I pay monthly for Apple services, and they can't identify me? Someone could help me? I've been an Apple developer for 7 years, but I've always used a business account. What should I do? Thanks a lot!!!!

Have developer registrations been suspended?
I purchased a developer account approximately 4 days ago, on Saturday. The payment was successfully charged to my card and I have the receipt, but I have not received any approval. The status is still PENDING, and we are about to enter the 5th day without approval. How can this issue be resolved? We are also not receiving any responses to our support tickets.
