Microsoft Teams free version - limit on numbers past 15?

Hi,
I'm trying to invite 30 people to a meeting/training - after I listed 15 email addresses a message popped up saying 'time could not be suggested for more than 15'. Does this mean I can't invite more than 15. I have a time I want to run it and only have a free version - thanks. I've run meetings before but with fewer people. I'm a bit concerned. Thanks for any advice.

Hmm, can't you get a free 30 trial or something, of the better version?

Or send two invites with the same link?

*30 day trial

Thanks for the above. Just wondered if anyone else had this. It seems to have let me invite the 30, so I was wondering what the warning meant?
I suppose I'm a bit worried in case it won;t let them all into the meeting.

From that message i would guess that yes, once the chat room fills up with 15 people, no one else will be able to enter. You'll have to pay to upgrade your subscription i imagine

Has any one else used MSTeams like this?

From a quick google it appears that the maximum number is 100. There seemed to be some stuff about maximum pinning videos at 15, so maybe youll only see 15 people on the screen at any one time, but everyone will be 'there'

Ive used it in groups bigger than 15 but i wasnt the host or organiser so dont know whether it was the free version or not.

We had more than 300 in a meeting yesterday,, but I think it must be due to using the work Office 365 account.

So I have resolved this in case any one was wondering. If you have more than 15 persons this is fine. However you can't access the invite part which asks them to suggest times - so if you have fewer than 15 people you can ask them to suggest times. So I was concerned over nothing.
