Previous developer accounts terminated without explanation — how to protect my current memberships?

Hi everyone,

I'm an iOS developer based in Türkiye. Over the years, some of my Apple Developer accounts have been blocked/terminated, and I was never able to regain access or find out the reason — even the termination emails didn't give me a clear explanation.

Right now I'm a member of three teams: my personal (individual) account and two organization accounts belonging to companies I work for. I regularly update and release apps on all of them, so losing access again would put me and my employers in a very difficult position.

Support hasn't been able to tell me why the previous accounts were closed, and I feel quite alone in this.

Has anyone been through something similar? What steps do you recommend to:

Avoid account termination in the first place, and Get a proper response from Apple Developer Support if it happens again? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

After reviewing your accounts, I did not find any indication of an access issue with them. It is likely that the issue was at the Apple Account level rather than the Apple Developer Program account level.

If you are still experiencing access issues, please contact Apple Developer Support at https://developer.apple.com/contact/. They can help determine whether the issue stems from your Apple Account or the Apple Developer Program.
