For clarification huiz was correct. After much experimentation, the issue was the UCSFollows after all. Once it is set to 1 and you place your viewports, you will need to set the UCSFollows in each viewport to 0, for it to take effect.

Best bet is to set UCSFollows to 0 at start.
Thanks for the help huiz, much appreciated.
