I found the issue:

Below is the work-around if some is having issue:

I We had assigned the user Administrator role:

Looking at different user fields in CRM I cam across:
Clien Access License (CAL) Information:

It was having values:

Access Mode : Administrative
License Type: Full

So I changed the Access Mode to :

 Read-Write     // Yahooooooooooooooo everything is working on the fly :)

Thanks for your time people.

The System Administrator role has all privileges on all records and this cannot be limited in any way.

I have two hypothesis(es?)

  1. Your Web Service isn't actually operating under credentials of a user having the System Administrator role. This is the most probable explanation, you have to make sure your connection gets passed the correct username/password(/domain unless IFD).

Since you have an ID to check against, you can double check who that user is with a simple OData query:

[crm url]/XrmServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc/SystemUserSet(guid'927fbba4-d61a-e311-992b-000c295c9030')
  1. Your CRM setup is messed up (highly unlikely unless you've been fiddling with the database, in that case odd errors and misbehaviors become a quite real possibility)
