The official answer to this is Anope Services does not support ChanServ in channels. If you are looking for official in-channel support you have the wrong services package. So the only thing "missing" is your understanding of how ChanServ is designed to work.
If you are persistant at having Anope services with ChanServ in-channel, then be prepared to face awkward results, bug like experiences and even channel or server desynchs and use a 3rd party module. However, these modules are not suggested, recommended or even supported by the Anope Team what so ever.
Since ChanServ's invention in 1994, it has NEVER needed to be in a channel to manage a channel, most people want chanserv in channel to "hold the channel open" .. this is a task for a client bot such as Eggdrop or the 2564563456 other client scripts/bots NOT a job for services.
