One of the reasons for your App Store and iTunes account to be disabled is a chargeback from your iTunes linked credit card. If you dispute a charge for an app directly with your credit card company, Apple will disable your App Store and iTunes account automatically once they receive the chargeback notification from your credit card company.


Apparently, the "correct" process to avoid this scenario is for you to dispute a charge for an app through Apple Support, instead of your bank.


However, if you do end up in this scenario, as others have posted, Apple Support is able to restore your account relatively quickly after you reach out to them.
