Is my phone really on Verizon?

I recently bought a Galaxy s7edge phone on eBay. It was listed as an unlocked Verizon phone. On the back of the phone it says Verizon. The model number is SM-g935U "U" means unlocked I am assuming. Even though it says Verizon on the back of the phone, I can't upgrade to Oreo. The phone also did not come with any of the standerd Verizon apps. Do you thing the phone was flashed to another version?

Thanks

We certainly want to see you get the most out of the phone. b416. Is the device currently activated on the Verizon Wireless network? What is the current system and baseband versions found via Settings>About Phone?

Bearone, thanks for that info. b416, we understand the importance of getting this updated. The device software updated must be pushed out while it is active on our network. Are you a current customer looking to start service?
