Reply to Having issues authorizing payment for Apple Developer Program
Fwiw, managed to solve it by creating new organization account. Had the same issue with my personal account (it had expired back in 2017). Tried with 5 different credit cards issued by 3 different banks over the last 3-4 months without success. Spamming devprograms email account every other day rewarded me with one canned reply saying that the bank is rejecting the withdrawal and they cannot do anything; all other messages i sent were left unanswered. I figured the issue could be with old, incorrect address i had set for my personal account. When i tried to change it i got replied that changing the address is allowed only for active memberships. Also, changing personal account to organization was not allowed for expired accounts. Fortunately i had the privilege of having my own legal entity with DUNS number already present. After enrolling as organization i got called back within two days by very friendly and helpful developer program support advisor. The purchase for organization account membership went through in ~15 minutes using the same credit card that did not work for my personal account. So definitely not an issue by the financial institution. Also asked the advisor how i could fix my personal account membership. He suggested me to send an email to devprograms just with the request to have them call back. So pehaps something worth a try for someone who has not yet given up.
