Apple Locking Business Accounts

8 points by craig_vg ↗ HN
Apple seems to be locking and/or closing business developer accounts, even if they have an active app on the App Store. Unclear how widespread but I’ve had it happened to me and seen a few others in the last 48 hours.

Not sure what to do or if anything can be done - I’m sure having apps orphaned on the App Store is not what Apple wants either.

Regardless this is a heads up to others - make sure you have non-business accounts with admin access to your apps.

Last resort would be to email Tim Apple.

Have you even tried talking to developer support?
Can you do that without access to your developer account? I will try if so.
