Update.
SO after a chat session we worked out the users hadn't clicked the activate subscription link.
Ran through that with a couple of them and all was well.
I have to say it harks back to a poorly worded email received by the users when you as an admin send an invite.
Download Acrobat Pro DC isn't helpful when all you want is them is to create an ID and accept and activate an assignment.
