I paid for the Apple Developer Program on October 16 and received the invoice on October 18.
On October 17 Apple asked me to verify my ID. I sent the documents the same day and got a reply confirming they had arrived. More than two days later my membership still isn’t active, and the account page hasn’t changed.
I’ve opened a case with Developer Support (case 103001474992) and also talked to regular apple support through chat yesterday where they first bounced be over to the developer team(?) and then they bounced me over to the technical team who I had a call with today, but they said the developer program can only be handled by developer.apple.com and provided no help.
I have an app ready for iOS and can’t go any further until the membership is active. I need to demo my app live at an award ceremony tomorrow night and need people to be able to install it. This is the biggest day for my app so far and I'm worried I won't be able to use it.
Please help. It's really time sensitive.
