Missing 'add e-SIM' option on my iPhone 13 Pro Max

My phone doesn't see my old e-SIM. And my add e-SIM button is gone. I've been without cell service for 4 days now. Technical support didn't help me and the store couldn't help me either. The service is just top notch. I'm in shock.

If you have an option for eSIM on your device then you will have EID. Please check if you have it.

Settings > General > About > EID


eSIM on iPhone is not offered in China mainland. In Hong Kong and Macao, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation), and iPhone XS feature eSIM. Learn about using Dual SIM with two nano-SIM cards in China mainland, Hong Kong, and Macao.
