Whenever I know I won't be in range of any quality wifi, I just switch it off and rely on 4G, but nooo, it's like it has a mind of it's own and it ALWAYS, eventually turns itself back on. No matter how many times I turn wifi off, after a short while, I will check my phone and wifi is again on, scanning for networks and draining my battery.

WHAT DO?

go to settings > networks > wifi > there should be a setting for how long after the wifi should turn on. It can be one hour or 4 hours or never - make sure that wifi is switched on manually and not automatically
