On-Demand Service Marketplaces Fail After Payment with No Accountability

Customers pay upfront for scheduled services like mattress removal through retail platforms, only to have multiple drivers cancel consecutively with no resolution or refund. The marketplace takes payment but cannot guarantee fulfillment, and customers have no leverage after payment. The two-sided marketplace dynamic places all risk on the buyer.
