Contact your cellphone carrier and request to unlock the SMS from your phone line because FaceTime and iMessage needs the SMS unlock and you will see that your phone number set it up to those services

Not quite. iMessage and Facetime must be able to send an international text message to complete the activation. However, if the OP already has the services active on their phone, I suspect that is not the issue.
