Pivot failed due to the companies did not promote it. If they did it was hidden online or in some corner at a walk-in service center. They didn't tell many people about it at all.

Also when you did go to sign up the cable company could not port your number for some reason from Sprint to their system and would give you the run around. It was more on the Sprint end with that though as sprint would say it wasn't on their end and they never heard of Pivot before.
There is no question that the marketing of it was terrible. However, the fact that they also charged more for the service (than from Sprint directly) likely put off the few customers who actually cared enough to inquire about it.
