Missing Table storage in Azure Portal

Question

I am in the process of setting up a production release and hence creating all new services in the portal. I am battling to create a storage account that will allow me to create Azure tables. Currently I am using NLOG Azure Storage and it has always created tables when needed (If I delete them manually, re run my applications, it will re create).

If I manually try create the table I get an error (see code below)

CloudStorageAccount storageAccount = CloudStorageAccount.Parse(Configuration.AzureStorageConnectionString);
// Create the table client.
CloudTableClient tableClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudTableClient();
CloudTable table = tableClient.GetTableReference("TestTable");
// Create the CloudTable if it does not exist
bool test = table.CreateIfNotExists();

I can create blobs easily but unable with tables. Our previous (staging) storage account was created on the old portal if that makes a difference?

Here is my config :

<add key="AzureStorageConnectionString" value="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=productionhalostorage;AccountKey=abc;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net" 
     xdt:Transform="Replace" 
     xdt:Locator="Match(key)" />

Ignore the xdt's I am using slow cheetah to maintain our configs.

Please check the type of the storage account in question. It should be a Standard storage account and not Blob Storage account as Blob Storage accounts do not support tables.

If the type of the account is Standard, please check the redundancy type of that account. It should not be ZRS or Premium LRS as these redundancy type also do not support tables.
