Iphone5 hotspot turns on by itself, even after repeatedly turning it off in Settings.

While traveling in the southeast U.S., we had two iphone5's that repeatedly had their hotspots activated even though we continually turned off the hotspot and even changed the passcode. Has anyone had this occur to them? Having returned to our home in the Midwest, I do not believe we have experienced this problem anymore. Unfortunately we have now gone over our data plan (Verizon Wireless). I am not a hardcore computer/smartphone geek, but I am pretty sure I know how to properly turn off the hotspot in SETTINGS (which, as I said previously, I did often, sometimes 4-5 times a day). Is there something we are missing?

iPhone 5, iOS 8.4
