Hi Byron,
Thankfully I managed to get it fixed.
Went into the administrator settings of Microsoft Forms. (Could be done by the person with Admin privileges)
In this menu - There was a "Group" category which I'm guessing could have been a list of categories for different departments / user groups.
Our organisation had no categories created, so the definition of "Group" (in this case) was settings for the entire organisation.
In there was the option to "add users to this group", and from there somehow my name was not on the list despite the fact that it was me who authored all the forms.
When my name was added - It solved the problem.

Thanks for getting back to me ChristopherHawker but I lost by your response.
I just tried access the form again using my outlook account and got the same error.
When I go to the settings of the form as the team administrator, I don't see a group category.
Please can you share screenshots so I know where I need to go to add people to this form/organisation?
THank you
