I got a 415 error message took me more than a day to find the cause, turns out that our web.config on the server is different to dev, it specifies a different binding which means the binding is different between the client (SL) and the wcf service on the server which seems to cause a 415 message (kinda makes sense). Your bindings above look correct, could be worth re-checking. Have you tried updating the service reference after adding the behaviorConfiguration, sometimes it works. Unfortunately HTTP error codes can be very misleading at times...
