DUNS Name Update Delay – Can I Enroll with Old Name and Update Later?
Hello everyone, I recently purchased a company (AAA) and renamed it to BBB. While the name has been updated locally in the Czech DUNS database, I’ve been informed it could take 4–6 weeks for the new name to appear internationally. When I attempt to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, I still see the old company name (AAA). I’m worried about losing valuable time if I have to wait for the international DUNS update. Is there any way to proceed with the enrollment under the old name and then update it to the new name later once the global DUNS data is refreshed? Or is there a way to expedite the update process? Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Not Getting any update on Developer account
I am facing a problem. I have enrolled developer program on 7th may, 25. It says will take 2 days but I haven't received any confirmation. Again I submitted information on 11th February, 25 but still haven't received any email about confirmation or rejection. I tried to contact apple support. They created ticket for me. But haven't received any further information from them. It seems like I am a ghost and apple is not seeing me. Can anyone tell me what is the problem. Thank you

Follow-up on Company Enrollment – Case ID: 102578249178
Hi, While I understand that some enrollment reviews may take time, it has now been nearly a month since we submitted our company enrollment on April 11, and unfortunately, we still have no concrete updates or next steps. As a small business, this extended delay is significantly affecting our operations. We are unable to proceed with our product launch, engage with partners, or move forward with development work. Each passing day adds to the financial and operational pressure we’re facing. To be completely transparent, we honestly don’t believe there is a large set of documents or verifications that would justify such a long review. Our company’s D-U-N-S information has been provided and contains clear, publicly verifiable details about our registration and address. Beyond that, there is no additional documentation that should require extended evaluation. From our research, we’ve learned that some enrollments may get stuck in the review pipeline indefinitely unless manually escalated — and some companies only managed to resolve the issue after getting in touch with senior contacts or executives. We kindly ask — and sincerely hope — that instead of a standard response confirming the enrollment is “under review,” we can receive a more concrete update: what stage it is truly at, whether any verification is pending, and whether manual intervention is required.

Does in-app purchase allow dynamic amount set by user?
Hi, I have an app where user can select an amount within range 20$ - 2500$ and purchase tokens worth that amount, so if he pays 520$ he gets 520 tokens. They can then use these tokens to unlock content within the app. As far as I've seen, in-app purchase doesn't allow custom price set by user. So does this mean we can use third-party payment services? If no, how can we achieve this using in-app purchase. Thank you.

Push Notification
Hello. We're developing an app with Flutter that receives VoIP calls. However, when the app is in the background or closed, the push notification arrives, but the call doesn't. It works perfectly when the app is open. We use Firebase, Flutter, and JANUS WebRTC. We need to know what type of permissions or actions we should consider so that the app opens when it receives a call. How can we resolve this issue? Thank you very much.

Unable to Re-Enroll in Apple Developer Program Due to Document Rejection
Hello, Two months ago, I tried to enroll in the Apple Developer Program and provided official documents such as my ID and passport. However, I was repeatedly asked to upload them again until my account was declared no longer eligible for use in the Apple Developer Program. I don’t know why my ID was rejected. I tried uploading a regular photo of the document, I tried a scan, and I tried various formats, but nothing worked. Now I want to try again and enroll, but the button is not clickable. Can you please guide me through what went wrong and how I can try again? Thank you.

Changing Developer Account type from Organization (Business) to Individual
I have just started the process of closing down my limited company and would like to change my Apple Developer ID account type from Business (Organization) to Individual to release my apps under my own name. I was planning on releasing software in the App Store under my limited company, but I encountered an issue (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/759605) that has blocked the development for almost a year and Apple has never bothered to fix the issue. This has forced me to close down the company. I have decided I will be releasing the software as an open source project. All I want now is to be able to sign the software using my regular, personal Apple Account ID. However, my Apple Account is currently tied to my company's Organization Developer Account. It is registered as a business with business accounts, the App Store Connect agreements are signed by my company, and everything else on my Developer profile is tied to that company. I do not see the option to close down the company/business account. The only relevant post I found online was here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/702447 Unfortunately, people mention in the comments that the workaround does not actually work. I have tried reaching Developer Support but had no response via email, and I cannot schedule a call back via the Support page because I cannot verify my overseas phone number. Seems like I have a really tough luck with Apple Developer ecosystem... Has anyone ever managed to do this? Any help much appreciated!

Activation Time for Apple Developer Program
Hello, I recently submitted a successful application for the Apple Developer Program using the Apple Developer app. I can confirm that my subscription is currently active and valid on the App Store. Could you please let me know how long it typically takes for the developer account to be fully activated? Is it acceptable to simply wait for the activation without contacting support? Thank you very much for your assistance.

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.
