I have no secondary members in the group users, opening th egroup correclty shows that no other members are included in it
I will try with a new group and new user that weren't created before in the NAS history

I created test_group and a member of it called test_user
I gave r/w to users and r/w to test_group and no access at all to test_user
test_user still has a read only access for files that were already in the share and r/w access for new files created
I rebooted the NAS but it doesn't fix the issue. Only way is to remove the permissions from the group users
Please help.
Only current fix for now is to not set the users group rights at all. However, "Folder Group" must be set to r/w to be able for me to configure the members access
Really wired

I forgot to mention: all access tests were done through SMB using an android device
