I paid for my developer account on the 13th of June 2024 (1 week ago). My ID was approved.
However, I still don't have access to the account.
When I go to check the status of it, it is asking me to pay again.
I then tried to email the team, however only received useless, timewasting responses, such as "Please go to developer.apple.com/enroll to enroll for an apple dev account", which I already told them prompts me to pay again and verify my ID again.
I then tried to call them, and they said they had to re-verify my ID and would call me back in 10 mins, but I never received a call back.
I also couldn't call them again because it wouldn't let me request another call from them. I then emailed them, but still haven't received a response.
The next day I tried to request another call from them, during their opening hours at Thursday 4pm AEST, (they are open Mon-Fri 9am-5pm AEST see https://developer.apple.com/support/worldwide-telephone-hours/) however it still says that "Phone support is currently unavailable".
I tried to email them but now I am getting no responses at all.
I tried to contact the apple support through the iMessage chat, however I was only put on call with a lady who was helpful, but couldn't even do anything as she was only generic support. She couldn't even schedule me a call or transfer me to the developer team, even though it was within their working and calling/support hours.
I have tried to refund my developer account, but apparently that purchase is "illegible for a refund".
This is the treatment I get from apple for paying $100 USD.
An entire week of being left on blank.
I don't know what to do. I paid 100 bucks for an account which I can't even use, and the support hasn't helped me for an entire week. My emails being left on blank, and I can't even call them.
If anyone from apple or anyone that could help me sees this, please contact me ASAP at makrypodisc@ hotmail.com or reply to this thread.
Thank you.
