Phone locked to network but when i put the right network simcard in it dosent work. Can anyone help with this issue?

I got this iPhone 5s awhile ago but have never tried putting my sim in but when I did it said it wasn't supported. When I go to look at the carrier it says three. Its odd because I have a 4g three sim card that doesn't work.

iPhone 5s, iOS 12

Where are you looking at the carrier? You can’t tell the carrier a phone is locked to by looking at anything on the phone. If it says that the phone is locked to a different carrier, then it really is.
