Verizon Galaxy S5 Moved/ported over to Straight Talk - NO DATA CONNECTION

So, I will start by giving information that is hopefully relevant.
I moved from Verizon to Straight Talk w/ a Straight Talk SIM card for Verizon towers. My phone is rooted, and bootloader unlocked (15 emmc).
I am currently using a custom ROM CM13 (Official Build Nightlies current ROM is from 4-27-2016)
I started Straight talk about 1 week ago, and ported my number over to ST with a sim card I bought from Amazon for Verizon Towers.
When a person starts ST they give you a free 5 day trial, then you start your monthly payments. Everything was fine during the 5 day trial, I HAD data and it was connecting at 4G/LTE speeds (Mobile Network Icon displayed "Verizon"). Then, when the trial ended and my refill card kicked in, I lost all data connection. Absolutely NO internet. In fact, the mobile network icon in the status bar (pull down menu) displayed "No Service," I then called ST customer service, they were able to get me connected but only at 3G speeds (However the mobile network Icon still displayed "No Service." I have coverage in this area I live in for 4G/LTE as I used it in this area for 2 years when I was with Verizon. The CS rep (who was a supervisor) then tried to get me connected at 4G. Long story short, they could not get me connected, in fact I lost data again. The CS rep then contacted Verizon and now they are sending me a new SIM card. My question is, What is the difference between the CM13 Unofficial VS Official Build? Could this be affecting my DATA connection? The unofficial builds can be found in the Galaxy S5 Verizon Development Threads. Can't remember where I found the official builds, but is the official Cyanogenmod site. I do have the link, but I don't have enough posts to show. Could I possibly be using the wrong ROM? Or is it something on Straight Talks side? Or have I missed something? Could this problem be a symptom of using the DEV Bootloader unlock method for Samsung 15 emmc? I would appreciate some insight on this. I should be receiving my new SIM hopefully in a few days or by the beginning of next week so I can update more when that comes. Thanks for taking the time to respond
