Purchased Ringtone is not showing up

I bought a couple of ringtones and they are not showing up in my settings > sounds & haptics. I already selected to re-download these purchases and nothing changed. I also read that i should connect my phone to my mac and go on itunes there. But 'tones' did not show up in my library. I further read on that i should go to general preferences and tick the option that will show 'tones' in my library but that option is not avaible in my 'preferences' window. Please help.

Tones are no longer directly managed in iTunes. See Create and manage ringtones in iTunes - Apple Community for some background. Depending upon when you purchased the tones they might not be eligible for redownload, there has been a change in the terms that I don't think was retrospective. If you have the originals in the Tones folder in your iTunes Media folder, again a possibility that depends somewhat on when they were purchased, you can drag and drop them to your device.
