Razer Phone 2 with Straight Talk

I've seen that that Razer Phone 2 now supports Verizon Networks however it isn't fully functional with The Verizon networks through Straight Talk. After a couple days of back and forth with ST Customer Service and multiple "Managers", they can't seem to get it to work.

What works:
Phone Calls (Inbound and Outbound)
Texting (Outbound)
Internet/Data

What doesn't:
Texting (Inbound)

After looking up online for the fix I found that Verizon Customers have to ask a tech to make their account "CDMA-Less". However that is purely a fix for full-on Verizon Customers. ST has no idea what I'm talking about even after describing what should fix it.

Has anyone else had these issues? If so were you able to fix it?

Is this something that needs to be brought up with Razer to get Verizon to push a fix for?

I'd just switch over to a different network since the Bring Your Own Phone pack I bought has AT&T - T-Mobile - Verizon SIM cards but I live in a rural area where the only network I get reliably is Verizon.

Any Insight?

Thank you

My husband had the problem with Verizon through Straight Talk on his Razer 2 as well. Straight Talk said to have Verizon "fully unlock" it. Verizon said it was fully unlocked and to talk to Straight Talk. He just ended up using the AT&T sim and it works fine. We're in a rural town as well where Verizon generally works better. AT&T signal is fine in town, but (like verizon) out in the more wooded areas signal's not so great.

I don't think all of the bugs between Verizon and Razer Phone 2 may not have been fixed yet.
