To those that read this:

The issue was the account was called "accounts-t...@companyname.com" (the 
setup instructions use theis specific email as an example: 
"test-mana...@mycompany.example.com")

HOWEVER: Google/gmail IGNORES after the minus sign in email addresses - so 
given our main account is "accou...@companyname.com" it was somehow getting 
confused / using the same address.

With this new account I managed to get set up, it just worked straight off. 
Only figured it out as accounts team started getting spam from the google 
group on their main email :D

Perhaps reconsider using a dash in your example email, google :)
