Apple developer enrollment error: Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time [closed]

The following message appear when I enroll Apple Developer Program:

Your enrollment could not be completed.

Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time.

After this message, I can not access payment page.

I asked Apple to solve this problem, but any apple advice can't help.

How can I overcome this? I want to enroll as a Apple developer.

How do you fix your enrollment in the Apple Developer program could not be completed at this time?

Press the Account Details button, select the Payment tab, press the Details... button next to the credit card entry (enter your Apple ID and administrator passwords as requested), then under Payment method select None and press the Save button. Seeing the same error message is helpful.

How long does it take for Apple Developer enrollment?

It may depend on if you are inside or outside the US. Outside typically takes longer, up to two weeks in most cases... longer if there are details particular to your application, etc. The current (2021) time in the US is about 30 minutes.

How do I become an Apple Developer under 18?

There's no real laws in the us that you can't have developer account under 18, just go to the Apple developer sign up page to create one and sign up for an Apple developer . You can't upload apps to the AppStore without the “Apple developer program” $99 though, but u can still make an app in Xcode on a Mac.

I managed to get past this error and successfully enroll. I hope that the following will help out you and those who follow.

First, I deleted my credit card details from my iCloud account. To do this on a Mac, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences, then select iCloud. Press the Account Details button, select the Payment tab, press the Details... button next to the credit card entry (enter your Apple ID and administrator passwords as requested), then under Payment method select None and press the Save button.

Next, I went back to Apple's Developer website and attempted to re-enroll. I was very pleased to see the same error message as before:

Seeing the same error message is helpful. It indicates that Apple do not give a specific issue even when the credit card details are completely missing.

Next, I re-added identical credit card information to my iCloud account. To do this on a Mac, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences, then select iCloud. Press the Account Details button, select the Payment tab, press the Details... button next to the credit card entry (enter your Apple ID and administrator passwords as requested), then enter your credit card details and press the Save button.

Attempting to enroll again allowed me past the "Your enrollment could not be completed" error message. I then had to deal with my bank blocking the credit card transaction, but that was just a simple phone call to authorize the transaction. Once authorized, I was very pleased to see:

I hope this is helpful. I do strongly feel that Apple could improve the error messages they offer in this scenario.
