The cellular section has been "variable", depending on country/service and the carrier settings installed. Classic example has been being able to turn on/off LTE with some services, others not.

But, the "Add Data Plan" line should be where you can manually enter the new eSIM.

Enter the information manually
If necessary, you can manually enter your plan information. To enter your plan information manually, follow these steps:
  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Tap either Cellular or Mobile Data.
  3. Tap Add Cellular Plan.
  4. Tap Enter Details Manually, at the bottom of your iPhone screen.
 
Much appreciated for the reply.

hopefully just a UK thing and will see what happens when my ESim QR code arrives. Hopefully works fine :)

thanks again
