Why is my phone IMEI being read as a Blackberry? IMEI Issue?

So I recently purchased an UNLOCKED Iphone SE. I ran the IMEI and it is clean and iCloud unlocked. I've taken it to my carrier (MetroPCS) and tried to get it activated but they are saying it is being recognized as a Blackberry and do not know what to do about it.

Would maybe reunlocking the phone fix this?

    I say contact Apple and tell them to find the IMEI on their system. Or else that IMEI is not the original.
