Can't see Code on Visual Studio Team Services visualstudio.com

On the Users screen (https://{account}.visualstudio.com/_admin/_users), what's the assigned license for the specific user. The user must have a "Basic" license assigned. Even with 5 free users, it's possible to set someone to the Stakeholder category.

If your VSTS account is linked to Active Directory it is possible you may have added the user both as an Azure Active Directory (School/Work Account) as well as a Microsoft Account (formerly LiveID). These count as two separate users and each require their own license.

And finally by adding someone to the [Project]Stakeholders security group, you basically limit their access as well. If you want to assign more creative security permissions, you may need to setup your own security group and assign the exact permissions you want for those users to that group.
