I already verified my domain, and bought a teams essential license, and have access to teams, but when I go to create an even ton the calendar tab in Teams, there is no option to make it a teams meeting:

What I am expecting to see is this:

I can use the Meet Now button to conduct ad hoc calls, and can join other people's invites if I click an invite link externally, but cannot schedule my own video calls.
I am getting close to giving up on Teams and Microsoft for my business altogether. It takes multiple support cases to literally accomplish anything and I have been at it for dozens of hours and still don't even have a working Microsoft teams account.
