Yup, will not work. It just is not compatible. It is not a matter of registered IMEI or clean IMEI.
No CDMA, wrong LTE bands.
To work on Verizon, the phone must support CDMA on 850 MHz and 1900 MHz, and support LTE on 700 MHz (band 13) at a minimum. All new Verizon phones are also supporting LTE band 4 (1700/2100 MHz). Notice there is no match below.

Your phone is a GSM phone. Verizon is a CDMA network. It won't work, simple as that.
it will work on T-Mobile or ATT, but I don't believe it will get LTE as it doesn't have the right bands.
ATT uses 2, 4, 5, and 17

And spotty performance with only half the CDMA frequencies.

Still is not going to work. It doesn't have Verizon's primary CDMA or LTE frequencies. For CDMA you need 850 MHz, not 800. That is the primary band that Verizon uses. For LTE there is no band 13 (700 MHz) and Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz) is not widespread.

In case your next question is that it supports 700 MHz, that is Band 12, or 700a and not Band 13 or 700c.
Band 12 is 729 MHz to 746 MHz
Band 13 is 746 MHz to 756 MHz
