429 Too Many Requests

I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program 48 hours ago, paid the $99 fee, and I still haven’t received any response. I also emailed Apple, but I haven’t received a reply yet.

Confirmation

After your purchase has been processed, you’ll receive a confirmation email. To check the status of your enrollment, sign in to your account on the developer website with the Apple Account you used to enroll. If you haven’t received a membership confirmation within 24 hours of your purchase, contact us. Make sure to include your Enrollment ID with your support request.


I don't know how Apple operates but keep in mind that it is now a weekend.

A subset of enrollments can take a couple of weeks, and sometimes longer.


Some reviews simply take longer.


No, we don’t know why.


If you don’t get a response in a week or so, call developer support.

mine ok now , you need to call them , they need verification they will send a link

Much better do the call method

This is a user-to-user support forum. There's nothing we can do.


It's normal to see people reporting similar experiences on the Apple Developer forums. According to Apple's App Store Transparency report, Apple's Developer program. Apple has over 51 million developers and 150,000 of those accounts are terminated every year. That's the way fraud works. Fraudsters keep scamming and making tons of money while honest people always pay the price. Governments around the world take action to punish Apple and protect the criminals.


All you can do is wait.

If you read the previous responses, you will see there is no solution to this in these consumer user-to-user forums where Apple does not participate.

@karim_ali87,


Hey, were you able to sort this out? If yes, how long did it take?


I’m facing the same issue and it’s already been 6 days on my end. I also created a support case 2 days ago, but haven’t received any response yet.

We know why. 😄


Most are clever enough to construct a narrative that clearly shows Apple as the evil-doer. But enough of them aren't that clever that you can see how it looks from Apple's perspective.


Just this weekend I saw a couple of good examples from that. One was complaining that he couldn't notarize apps using the developer account he had purchased from a 3rd party. Apparently, there exists some kind of developer account marketplace where people can buy accounts under other people's names. And if you're wondering - yes, it was a VPN app. 😄

Thanks for your reply

I already contacted them but also no response from them, as you say it may be the weekend. Thank you

Same here - 6 days - a few support requests, but no reply.

Did you finally get this sorted? Was there a problem, or are they just incredibly slow?

No Status , No Email , They Need to Fix this

Did you end up getting a response from apple?

Please read the prior responses. There is nothing the end users that make up these forums can do to fix it.
