Ask HN: Apple not fixing their bug preventing app release for months

Hi, I recently signed up tp Apple developer account, and when notarizing my app for distribution, received a very well known, and persistent, and still unfixed bug: "Team isn't configured for notarization".

This is almost an year old bug on Apple's backend that Apple still hasn't resolved. Many developers are getting stuck on this (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/118465).

I have been personally following up on their developer support email, and it's been 3 months now and more than 15 mail exchanges since then. Neither do they fix the bug, nor do they give any timelines for the fix (not even tentative timeline), nor do they refund the developer fees.

My app is sitting ducks for months now.

My question:

Can anyone help me here in anyway? I do not want my app to be released in a way that causes gatekeeper to throw "invalid/broken app" error when starting because it is not notarized.

Thanks..
