My phone was texted by ee (150) which consisted of links to activate my add ons which i selected. But those texts have now vanished. Im unsure now what to do

@Poppsnaps It is possible to have texts from the old device on your new device.

On your old device go to Settings>Click your name at the top. Click iCloud>click Show All>Scroll down to MESSAGES IN iCLOUD and switch it on. Now do the same on the new device. Restart both devices and your texts from the SE should now be on your new device.

Then your texts will be on the iPhone SE. They don't move with the SIM but stay on the phone.
