Here's their published methods for topping up

So you can either buy a card from a store and send the code from the phone to the text number or do it using your online account. I imagine that would just go straight onto your account, no code to enter.
It sounds to me like you may have inadvertently ordered a new card, or they processed your request wrongly. If you did it online just run through the steps again and confirm to yourself how you did it.
EDIT: Oh, and no, you wouldn't get a new SIM for each top up!!
