Sim card shown but service disabled

[Coltar15]

So in my galaxy s7 my simcard is shown that it is recognized but texting fails, mobile data doesnt work, and calling sends me to a verizon bot. Right before this happend i used my simcard to activate an iphone 6 that i reset and sold to a friend without the sim card. Any ideas on how to fix it?
