E-Sim - why so difficult?

I had to send my iPhone 13 back to Apple as it had a fault. I removed the e-sim from mobile data. 

Got my replacement phone today and went to add the sim. Downloaded all fine, but it needs activating. However they will send me a text message. Yet I can’t receive a text message as I need to activate the sim!

 

Why does it have to be so difficult. Surely you can send the activation code to my email as a backup?

@Risc0n   That’s the esim for you.    You need a replacement SIM card to receive the message.  you’ll need to call customer services to request this.
