How to stop: Your career may charge for sms to activate iMessage, Facetime & icloud!

I keep receiving this notification, and it charges every month without even pressing “Ok” when notified. I need to know how to stop this.

Thanks!

Stop “Your network provider may charge for sms used to activate iCloud” message Hi I have an iPhone 11pro used on Lowi’s network in Spain. Since purchasing I’ve been bothered by this “Your network provider may charge for sms used to activate iCloud” warning. See photo. It happens daily, at different times, not associated with an App, or turning on/off wifi. I’ve tried turning off/on iCloud, turning off messages in iCloud, turning off iMessage. It isn’t fatal but it’s annoying. Any advice to keep it from appearing? Side note: if I have iMessage on, I get a similar warning for iMessage. If I have FaceTime on, I get a similar message for FaceTime. In fact there’s a cycle: if iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud are turned on, I get the iMessage warning until I turn it off, then the FaceTime message comes, and once FaceTime is off I get the iCloud warning. If I shut off my iCloud acct I may as well get a Huawei phone.

CRAZY POP-UPS! Hello, I keep getting this pop-up message and it drives me crazy! It literally won’t go away if I haven’t use my phone for a while. It says FaceTime and I message your carrier may charge for SMS messaging used to activate FaceTime and iMessage. Underneath it says cancel or OK. What the heck does that mean and how the hell do I get it to stop! LOL 😝

I get messages to deregister iMessage I get messages every day like this : Use code *** to deregister iMessage. Reply STOP to cancel. I wonder what I'm dealing with? Is there any danger and how can I fix the problem so that I don't get such messages anymore. [Edited by Moderator]

iMessage activation is carrier specific issue. Kindly contact them to understand the issue in their perspective.
