I'm using my phone the same way in the same places and with the same apps and settings, but suddenly since 7.1.1 I'm getting masses of phantom usage and a battery that's flat by mid afternoon no matter what I do.

What usually gives rise to threads like these is where - as in my case certainly - you find battery life dropping suddenly without any change to your own situation.

Exactly. People say stuff like we must be in a bad signal area, or we're playing with our phones more etc. We all know our usual usage patterns, and the battery life we used to get prior to an update. Roll on the iPhone 6 and the end of battery woes & low memory issues...

You might need to download a background app that stop unnecessary apps that are running. I know with updates there are background apps that are sending out data which could be causing massive battery life drain.

Background app to stop other apps that are running? :confused:
