How to unsubscribe from Mobily and STC (KSA) Facebook SMS Service

Facebook SMS Service is nice feature and it can be setup easily through Mobile tab on your Facebook Account Settings, after that you will start receiving messages according to your preference. The mobile provider will charge you a certain amount by weekly or monthly basis to keep sending it. but if you need to remove the Facebook SMS Service, it is not easy as you think, even if you removed your mobile number from Facebook Account Settings the Mobile Operator will keep charging you . I faced this issue on my Mobily (Saudi)number, every Friday morning I will get two messages stats “ your last call costs SAR 3” and “ you are still registered to the Mobily Facebook SMS service”. I called customer support, went to their office nothing happened. finally I got a solution one of my friend working as a mobile technician.
The solution is as follows

Mobily 
Send a SMS to 606050 contains“UF” without quotation marks in subject field.
if you need to subscribe again send “F” to 606050.

STC 
Send a SMS to 86677 contains“UF” without quotation marks in subject field.
if you need to subscribe again send “F” to 86677.
