Basically I've got a T-Mobile phone which doesn't work anymore, just wondering if I'll able to view the texts i've received on another T-Mobile phone?

You should be able to transfer your sim card from your old phone over to the other T-Mobile handset if your sim card in the old phone is still working, I've done it with my 2 vodafone sim cards a few times.

Oh sorry I'm not doubting that. Just wondering the texts i've received since my phone has been broken will still be stored on the SIM card.

When you say broken do you mean not powering on at all or just not able to read texts when they are recieved.

If the prior I THINK T-Mobile hold texts pending for XX days and they will be sent to your phone as soon as your are detected on the network again.

If the later then the texts will remain on the SIM until either

1) The SIM fills up and can take no more ( In which case any sent after this will be lost)

or

2) You physically delete the texts yourself

In other words any texts you have recieved will still be on the SIM, any texts not yet recieved but sent to you will be held by T-Mobile for XX days then deleted at thier end, unless you SIM can hold no more texts then they will be lost.

(Not entirely sure of the exact timescales here as networks vary)
