Richard,

You may know these methods below, but if you do not, then please read on...

If you had not removed unattended-upgrades:
dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades  (select 'no')


Would you be using Gnome? (understand this can be used)

Software
(select menu icon in top right of 'Software' window)
Update Preferences
Automatic Update (set to off)

or
 
https://blogs.gnome.org/kalev/2014/09/24/whats-new-in-gnome-software-3-14/
It’s now possible to disable the background update checks altogether through a hidden setting: ‘gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false’

$ gsettings set org.gnome.software download-updates false

I hope the above work, I have not used these so as to know if they do or not?

George.
