Apple not processing payment for Apple Developer Program

Enrollment was successful, however the payment has been a nightmare. I've made payment via web, I've made payment via Apple Developer App and Apple Pay. This has been done multiple times. The payment is just not processed by Apple. I've sent multiple email requests to Apple Developer Support to find out what the hold up is with the payment being processed, and have not received any response other than they apologise for their delay in responding to emails. I have had no resolution.

Because my region is South Africa there is only email support. There is no contact number and no live chat. All I have is a feedback loop with Apple Developer Support via email.

How can I get Apple to give me support???

I think I finally figured out why Apple is not processing the payment, it is because the payment is being initiated via Credit Card from a Windows PC. I installed the Apple Developer App on a borrowed iPhone, reenrolled to the program and paid the membership using my credit card, and it was a success. The key is to use one Apple device to enroll and then make payment.

Hope this workaround works for you!
