Q: why Apple iPhone 6 sending SMS automatically on UK number?

I have just noticed that my credit is being deducted from my mobile account. I am in Pakistan and using Mobilink network.I checked my Message,Calls logs emails logs etc but no point where i can check that why me credit is being deducted. Absolutely nothing found. :-/

 

I called support center and the guy told me that there are 24 SMS that have been sent internationally from my iPhone 6. Whattt???? :O I have't sent even a single one.  Even my iMessage & facetime are disabled.. kindly help me how can I resolve my issue?

    iMessage and FaceTime activation use background SMS messages to Apple's activation servers in the UK. If you are using a supported carrier and your account is properly provisioned for an iPhone, most carriers do not charge for these messages. If you are using an unsupported carrier, and you do not want to pay for these messages, turn off FaceTime and iMessage and do not turn them back on.
