I believe you mean App Store, not Apple Store.
Your issue appears to be one that may produce various iTunes/Media and/or App Store disabled or locked messages which refer you to this support article ➞ If a message says 'Your Media & Purchases account has been disabled' - Apple Support
You must contact Apple to have them resolve this for you. The people on this Community are users like yourself and cannot resolve this for you.
Try clicking on this link provided by Apple specifically for this issue ➞ https://getsupport.apple.com/?caller=kbase&PGF=PGF63005&category_id=SC0245&symptom_id=23362 and choose the self help method, or a contact option. You can also find this “request reactivation” link in the support article I provided above.
If the special link does not work, try contacting Apple using a method provided at the bottom of this page —> Contact Apple Support - Apple Support

If you can’t regain access to your Apple Account:
When you request access to your locked Apple Account, you might get an alert that says, “This Apple Account is locked and can’t be used” or your request might be denied.
If you can’t regain access to your Apple Account, you can either:
If your Media & Purchases account has been disabled:
If you see a message that says “Your Media & Purchases account has been disabled,” you might be able to request reactivation by tapping Continue right from the alert.
