Have you tried this?

See this link: Manage your iCloud storage - Apple


Delete backups and turn off Backup for your device

Use the steps below for your device.

iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

iOS 9:

  1. Go to Settings > General > Storage & iCloud Usage.
  2. Under iCloud, tap Manage Storage.
  3. Tap the name of your device.
  4. Tap Delete Backup > Turn Off & Delete.

iOS 8:

  1. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage.
  2. Tap the name of your device.
  3. Tap Delete Backup > Turn Off & Delete.

iOS 7 and earlier:

  1. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.
  2. Tap the name of your device.
  3. Tap Delete Backup > Turn Off & Delete.

When you delete a backup, it also turns off backup of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
