I paid for the developer account and it was terminated after 4 months. Even though I did nothing during those 4 months, the account was still terminated. Apple's letter mentioned that I was in violation of Section 3.2(f):
This letter serves as notice of termination of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement (the “ADP Agreement”) and the Apple Developer Agreement (the “Developer Agreement”) between you and Apple effective immediately.
Pursuant to Section 3.2(f) of the ADP Agreement, you agreed that you would not “commit any act intended to interfere with any of the Apple Software or Services, the intent of this Agreement, or Apple’s business practices including, but not limited to, taking actions that may hinder the performance or intended use of the App Store, Custom App Distribution, TestFlight, Xcode Cloud, Ad Hoc distribution, or the Program…” Apple has good reason to believe that you violated this Section due to documented indications of fraudulent conduct associated with your account.
Apple is exercising its right to terminate your status as an Apple developer pursuant to the Apple Developer Agreement and is terminating you under the ADP Agreement for dishonest and fraudulent acts relating to that agreement. We would like to remind you of your obligations with regard to all software and other confidential information that you obtained from Apple as an Apple developer and under the ADP Agreement. You must promptly cease all use of and destroy such materials and comply with all the other termination obligations set forth in Section 11.3 of the ADP Agreement and Section 10 of the Apple Developer Agreement.
If applicable, no further payments will be made to you pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Paid Applications agreement (Schedules 2 and 3 to the ADP Agreement).
This letter is not intended to be a complete statement of the facts regarding this matter, and nothing in this letter should be construed as a waiver of any rights or remedies Apple may have, all of which are hereby reserved. Finally, please note that we will deny your reapplication to the Apple Developer Program for at least a year considering the nature of your acts. If you want to file an official complaint pursuant to an applicable Platform Regulation in your country or region you may Contact Us.
I sent a support request, saying I didn't do anything so I couldn't violate it. It's quite strange to label me a violation without explaining anything. And after 14 days, this letter came to me:
We're contacting you regarding your request to reinstate your Apple Developer Program membership, which was terminated on 08/01/2024.
After a thorough evaluation, we're not granting your appeal for reinstatement to the Apple Developer Program.
Please note that this decision is final. We will not process subsequent appeals.
So I wasted my $99 doing nothing, feel bad that Apple doesn't care about independent developer.
Do I have a chance to get that money back now? I know this question is funny, because Apple is always right :)
