I checked Freedompop wbsite and to check compatibility I put IEMI in and it said "we are having problems with your device, please call"....but I thought I saw somewhere that another Note 7 user was able to use Freedompop.

It may be a result of when any IMEI-block is applied by your carrier or carrier-alliance.
For example, latest information suggests Verizon is applying IMEI-block to batches of Note 7 devices over a days.

Freedompop sim works in my verizon n7 but I mainly use my verizon sim. I activated it the week of cyber monday and my imei was clear on their site the week of blackfriday. Im sure if you call the will say it works reguardless of if it works are not they are always trying to upsell you and get their commission.

you needed to register in a way where you do not need to enter your IMEI. please look at the instructions here: https://note7alliance.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=300

So is this a realistic work around for the Verizon Note 7 users? Will this keep our Note 7 functioning on an LTE 4G network with our same phone numbers?

EDIT- sorry was answering another thread an got confused.
Other people have used other prepaid carriers like T-Mobile and Straight Talk. Using Freedom-pop should hopefully fix the problem where you connect to the network and make a call.
