iTunes Accounts service drain battery in iOS7

Hi.

I have iPhone 4S with iOS7. So far it worked good. Couple weeks ago iTunes Accounts service started drain my battery. Every morning I get battery 10-20% lower then last evening. I marked for myself that this service does big data traffic up to 2 Mb per night (during a day too).

What I did: all settings reseted to factory ones. Location services, push, notifications etc was shutted off always before.

Problem is not solved. How to save battery life and avoid data traffic?

Thank you for any help.

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.6

IOS 7 turns off wifi and uses mobile data when the screen turns off. Ridiculous.

Change your settings in cellular to do large updates and such over wifi by turning cellular data off for. Data munching apps.

Plug the phone in to charge overnight or turn it off.

Ok. But before 2 weeks ago my iphone never has loaded/sent some data overnight.

Some people say that leave charging phone over night is bad for battery, so to say overcharging.

Today iTunes Accounts service ate 2.6 Mb of data although 3G was turned off. Strange.
