Apple DEP Enrollment & Look Back Service Issues

I am posting here in hopes that someone will be able to help us.  We first submitted the ATT "Device Enrollment Enablement Program – Participant Request Form” on January 23rd. Have have gone around and around with many people from ATT and nobody seems to know anything about it and has not been able to even point us in the right direction.
 
We have submitted the form multiple times as well as other requested information such as screenshots from our Apple DEP portal.
 
We know how DEP works. We have DEP setup with other vendors. This should not be a difficult process. Let me be clear about what we need at this point. We need to talk to someone who can get our ATT DEP enrollment completed, and we should be able to do so without having to place a new order. We then need all of our past orders entered into DEP(I believe ATT refers to this as the “look back” program) so that all of our current devices purchased from ATT will be in DEP.
 
Our company has been a long time ATT customer and has spent many many thousands of dollars with ATT and we continue to do so. We would hope that is appreciated, as it certainly does not seem to be as regards the lack of service we have received in trying to complete what should be quite a simple task.
 
We ask that you please help us with this matter or direct us to the right person who can.
 
Thank You

Hello Everyone,

 

After reading through every post I could find on the forums regarding DEP, it is obvious that this is a big problem. We use DEP and have worked with other vendors and have been setup in around 48 hours. I am posting this reply because I see that already many people have viewed this topic and I wanted to keep everyone up to date as to the progress on this so maybe others will be able to avoid the experience we have had thus far.

 

As you can see, Lisa from ATT replied to my initial post. I replied to her and she recommended to me that we contact our sales rep. I let her know that we have tried to go through what one would think to be "proper channels" since January and thus far it has gotten up nowhere. Lisa then replied and asked that I give her 24-48 hours so that she could work with our rep to try to find a resolution.

 

If anyone has else has anything to add. I would love any further advise. I will keep everyone up to date as soon as I know more. Thank You.

We had the exact same problem.  We had purchased six iPads from AT&T and five iPads from Verizon (our business is in the mountains and the service provided is dependent on location!) and then setup our MDM.  The five iPads from Verizon were setup with Apple DEP within two days!!!  The six iPads from AT&T were purchased on October 28, 2017 and were finally setup with Apple DEP on April 30, 2018, six months later!  I completed the private message to an AT&T manager on more than one occasion, opened more than one case with AT&T customer service, contacted two different account reps before finding one who said they could help.  After approximately 75 emails back and forth, the iPads showed up on Apple DEP.  There was never an explanation as to why it took so long, or an apology.  So, unfortunately, I have no insight as to how to expedite the process, just my experience!

Hey Everyone,

 

Just wanted to give an update....

 

As you can see if you are following the thread, Lisa has contacted our account representative. After a couple of days and several more emails back an forth, our account rep has now involved a few more ATT people. I am told that they are currently looking into the issues. We are waiting and hoping that this will be resolved soon. Again, let me say that if anyone else has any helpful information that might help us or anyone else trying to accomplish same thing, please post it to the thread. 

 

Other than Lisa, I don't know what ATT employees monitor these posts, but I would just like to let you know that this process should not be a time consuming or difficult one. We use Apple's DEP program with other vendors besides ATT, and the entire setup process with those other companies took less than 48 hours from our initial email request to them. Knowing this is what amplifies our current frustrations with this not being completed at this point.

I am also having a problem even getting anyone from AT&T to help me. Apple has been super helpful but all AT&T does is refer me to Apple. What else can I do to get someone to assist me?

My company is also having issues with Device Enrollment Enablement Program. Apple says everything is setup correctly, but our test order still isn't showing up in Apple Business Manager DEP. AT&T support doesn't seem to know what the issue is either. Frustrating.

I signed up for DEP with AT&T through this link.

https://dmp.wireless.att.com/businessconsole/browse/details/applebusinessmanager

After fully completing the form, I got a confirmation message saying:

"You’ve successfully submitted your request. Within a few business days, we'll send you a confirmation email with a case number. After you receive the email, you'll need to submit a screenshot of your Organization ID. More information is available in the email."

The next day, I get an email saying I have been denied because of a "Missing screenshot Showing your Organizational/DEP ID. This is not the same thing as your Apple Customer ID or your Reseller ID." Something is clearly wrong here.

Naturally the email is a do not reply email, so I contacted the number in the email listed for the Device Enrollment Enablement Program care team but it took me to a robot who didnt respond to DEP and customer service reps who had no clue about DEP or the team name the email mentioned.
