I think Apple is using localized payments so its different region to region. Because my account is active now in https://developer.apple.com/account/ but no access to connect. It happened once or twice with login via incognito so I cleared cookies and localstorage as well, but then clicking on Apps takes me to documentation instead of the actual view

I used the https://apps.apple.com/us/app/apple-developer/id640199958 app. And after around 48 hours it did let me use the developer account, but I still cannot login to connect. I see this error: To access App Store Connect, you must be an individual or team member in the Apple Developer Program, or invited by an individual to access their content in App Store Connect.
