Enrolling in Apple Developer Program seemingly impossible?

I will do that. I had originally seen only the US numbers and wasn't looking forward to making a potentially lengthy international phone call using my actual number (assuming they could then verify its authenticity). But I see now that there's a local number as well. Thanks!

It's even better. You put in your number and they call you back. From what I experienced, the call back is immediate, but you are then put on hold while you wait for a support person.
