Verizon iPhone bought at either subsidized OR device only (ie, full price) will work on Verizon, TMobile and ATT (but not Sprint).
TMobile iPhone bought at full price (from the Apple online or retail store) will work on TMobile or ATT (but not Verizon).
TMobile iPhone bought at full price (from the TMobile store) will only work with TMobile initially but should be eligible to be unlocked by TMobile after 40 or 60 days of service I believe. Once unlocked, it will work with ATT (but not Verizon).
So you are definitely out of luck to use that phone on Verizon. It won't work.
Unfortunately, your best bet is to take it to the Apple Store when you get it and either exchange for the Verizon version (if in stock) or just return it and begin your wait all over again.
So sorry about this.
