(Note: I don't need DTS support. This is not a DTS issue, and the standard responses aren't relevant to the situation. I would ask that DTS not respond in lieu of the developer support official)
Yesterday, a poster in this forum wrote about his experience waiting several months to get approved to have his apps notarized. He had hit the "status code 7000; Team ID not configured for notarization" block.
An Apple Developer Support account responded to him saying they would help the poster.
After a month of waiting and praying for Developer Support to approve my Team ID for notarization, and no progress via the official channels, I am rolling the dice that asking Developer Support here will get my account approved or at least moved forward. I just can't wrap my head around why it takes so long to allow a Team ID to submit apps for notarization.
My Team ID is V67NRZ84A2, and my support ticket is 102874600970. Spending months and months developing an app, paying the Developer Support annual fee, and then having to sit on your hands for months while your app gathers dust due to the Status Code 7000 bottleneck is very demoralizing.
Again, not a DTS issue. The official channels 100% do not work. Developer Support did respond to a poster yesterday, so this is the pathway I'm hoping will lead to my Team ID getting permission to notarize apps. As it stands, no other method is leading to the problem getting resolved.
