40 minutes limit

New rules went into effect today  Most Free accounts got an email in the last week or so offering a discounted upgrade to Zoom Pro as part of the announcement. 

Well... the Zoom web site is vast, and all I can say is that the staff probably missed a place or two.  The only place I could find still in error was the pop-up on Meeting Duration at https://zoom.us/pricing 

I think the tool-tip is incorrect and misleading anyway.  But I sent a Support Ticket up to the Zoom Support folks to try to get it changed or removed.

Here in the Zoom Community, we're just volunteers trying to help out... with no access to anything and no authority to make someone change something 😉

If you find some other place that has incorrect information, please post the page URL and the incorrect information here, and I'll do what I can to forward to the Zoom staff.  In the meantime -- even if you didn't get the word -- there's plenty of evidence now that Zoom is cutting back on 1:1 meetings on Basic/Free accounts. 

Take a look at this community post for more of my opinion of why this is happening.

May 2, 2022 - Free account meeting duration changes – Zoom Support

I really dislike this new 40 minute limit since I teach 45 minute music lessons.... I have only a handful of students and not every week.  $150 is quite a lot to pay for 5 additional minutes.....

I, too, did not get an email about this and was shocked when my regular Tuesday Zoom meeting (with only one person) ended abruptly after 40 minutes. This is so stupid on the part of Zoom. Investigating other apps to have this meeting on, like Microsoft Teams. Any suggestions for those of us who don't do big meetings and just want to connect with family and friends?

I have the same problem. I think it started a few days ago. 

Having the same issue with teaching 45 minute lessons where where I had to sign up for a subscription . Somehow I'm on a business plan and getting charged so much! Does anybody know if I can go past 40 min with a pro plan instead?
