New small tenant, subscription Active. Currently in trial period but billing is set to start at the end. All SharePoint/OneDrive writes fail in the browser and in sync, but Outlook works. Billing, subscription and user licences all look healthy. Microsoft’s tenant storage diagnostic shows 0.01 GB used of 1,274 GB, and PowerShell shows every site as Unlock. Microsoft support is looking into it. I’ve seen two similar reports on Microsoft Q&A within the last week (both new tenants). Are there any other fixes or checks that could be performed to resolve the issue?
A Microsoft file hosting and synchronization service.
In case anyone else is curious and/or affected, I was just informed by Microsoft support that SharePoint is currently down for all new business account tenants created since end of October and they are trying to work out a fix

Thank you for your update, I will pin this answer in case new similar questions are raised.
Hello Joshua Hor
I have come across a limited number of similar reports on Microsoft Q&A involving newly created Microsoft 365 tenants experiencing the same read-only issue. Unfortunately, no confirmed solution has been shared publicly so far. Given that the standard checks have already been completed, I believe the best approach would be to raise a support ticket through the Microsoft 365 admin center for further check by Microsoft Support.
