Hi there

It sounds like you have Message plus on your phone. You can disable it if you want by going into the message settings

Message + comes integrated into the handsets that Vodafone have been supplying for close on a year or so.   You no longer have to download a seperate app.

Did you get your phone from Vodafone?  If so, there is a high likelihood that it is installed.

that explains it, yes it is a vodafone supplied s6

will look at seetings to disable

On the S5, you can disable Message + / RCS, as it is also called by, going into the messages app, select Settings > Default Messaging App > Rich Communications and make sure it is unticked.

I don't know if it will be similar on the S6.
