I went to log into App Store Connect yesterday to see if I continued my streak of 0 app installs, when I am prompted with an account locked notification (This account is locked and cannot be used). Uh, oh. This is my developer account that I setup a few months ago to get into app development. I looked around, and saw that yesterday a few others were locked out:

- - -
Developer Support said it's an Apple ID issue. General Support has been useless saying "the Apple team locked the account, and we can't tell you more due to customer privacy". Well, I thought you were the Apple team, and that I was the customer? But alright.

I have been told to make a new account, and from what I understand I can transfer my app over (hopefully the Developer membership too?). This isn't a huge deal for me, because I had nothing in this iCloud account aside from the dev membership. But I am beginning the purge of over-relying on iCloud for everything else.

TLDR; anyone else get randomly locked out to no avail? If you availed, how?
