iPhone transfer of data

I had an iPhone that was damaged and needed to upgrade and purchase a new iPhone. I did not remember my Apple iD when purchasing the phone. The transfer of data never occurred and I lost everything, (photos, Id’s, etc). How can I pull this information into my new phone?

If the old phone is damaged and you didn't back it up before damage then you can't get to the data. Repairing it will not help as it will need to be wiped

If you had iCloud backup turned on or iCloud Photos you need access to the original icloud account

You also need access to iCloud for any Mail, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, Keychain....

Did you go here?
