The operator queues text messages. They then continue to try to resend for some days. I don't know how many days but certainly more than a week.
What is the new phone? (I mean which model.)
I assume that you've put your previous SIM into the 'new' phone.
What message do you get if you try to call your phone when it is off?
Does it receive texts normally when it is on?
Does it receive calls normally when it is on?
>>I presumed my operator "knows" when the 'phone is active and only sends texts when it is active.
Kind of, the operator tries to send and if it doesn't succeed then it queues to send again. Whether that lack of success if a phone off, broken or out of range.
