It may be easier for you to go to the shop and ask them to help you with this.

Out of curiosity what does the extra £138 charges cover?

Purely changing settings on the phone should not make your phone use more of the network - even data charges are going to be £1 per day maximum without a bundle, but again that is account related not device settings.

You definitely need to contact customer service or the store and change to a tariff/bolt on to suit your needs and usage. It can be very costly as you have unfortunately discovered.

 

Hope you get it  sorted, smart phones are designed to eat data so try using wifi whenever possible and maybe switch off mobile data in the settings until you have the tariff or bolt or bolt on sorted out.

It's impossible to advise you here unless you say precisely what has happened.
