My s20+ has just updated overnight and now I keep being spammed, literally every couple of minutes, by Google with a "chat features" which pops up on the screen to turn on..... so far I've managed to click "use without chart features" as I do not want or need chat features or rcs or whatever the heck it wants to call itself but the "agree" option is very large and is exactly by where you use your "buttons" by bottom of the screen so chances are most of us will click by error which is frankly... disgraceful. Any suggestions on how to stop this message from appearing? 
I can find options to disable it once you are using it but I don't want to accept it at all... I don't want to give permission for Google to check my contacts for what service they use... 

Any help please?

Lol I never said I agreed to anything so not sure what you're talking about. Just cuz what I'm suggesting doesn't work for you doesn't give you the right to be rude. These suggestions have worked for other people. I got it to stop coming up for me so again I'm trying to help others

I'd read through the comments on this page. If none of these work for you then I'm not sure

The solution for me was to install messages from Google I  the playstore as it is not installed by default on the phone.

I got S9, but have the same problem. A workaround that worked for me was entering the storage settings of the Messages app, and choose Clear data. I was first worried my messages would go, but they appeared again after a couple seconds. After doing that, I still get the Chat Features popup when entering the Messages-app, but it hasn't bothered me outside of that since.

 

If I try entering the Chat settings in the Messages-app, I also get the Chat Features popup. If I decline it from here, I get a connection error notification.
