My problem is the following:
I created an application in XCode and I logged in with an account that is not enrolled in the Apple Developer Program. And the BundleId was automatically registered in that account.
So now that we have the new developer account (Enrolled) it no longer lets me register the same bundleID. Because it tells me an error "cannot be registered to your development team because it is not available. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.
And look in forums that the only solution is:
But it is a free account. I do not see the option "Certificates"
Please help!

Login to Apple Developer with the account that registered that bundleId
Go to certificates
Revoke the certificate

When using Xcode's free provisioning, the ability to interact with the backend is limited, including the ability to see active bundleIDs.
The paid dev account is not associated with anything you did when using Xcode's free provisioning. Any bundleIDs created with free provisioning are tied to the AppleID used at that time.
Side note I hope you didn't use the same Apple ID tied to free provisioning with your new paid dev program account..those should be separate and unique.
Suggest you do as the error recommends and simply create a new, unique bundleID - keep in mind they are free and you can create as many as you like. It is only important that they are in the proper format and unique with each app you create.
Write this off as a learning experience, move on and be happy.
If you care to go to the trouble, you might try asking support directly if there is anything they can do via the 'contact us' link below, but I would keep expectations low, and not be surprised if they say oh well and send you back here to devForums.
Good luck.
