Despite the Office 365 portal saying the product was activated the software continued to display the red banner across the title bars of all Office apps, I was receiving the error 'We're sorry something went wrong.' and error code 0x8007005 when trying to activate.
The solution turned out to be very simple. Run an office application as Administrator and wait a minute until it activates it's self, I didn't need to do anything other than right click Excel and run as Administrator then wait.
It will then tell you it has activated and you can go back to using the apps as usual.
I had this same issue in my computer. I tried these steps; repair office, remove and re install office. I have contacted Microsoftlive support they resolved my issue. They told that they removed old office files from registry and re install the office. Now it is working well.

I found their solution too, and was using it in cases like this, however running an office app as Admin to allow it to make the changes is much quicker and easier.
