The lead quality deterioration makes the platform economically unviable for genuine service providers. Trust in the platform erodes as spam volume increases and legitimate bookings become rare.

Contractors paying for leads on home services platforms find the majority are unreachable, yet credit refunds are denied during normal service and only granted when the contractor threatens to leave. This creates a perverse dynamic where staying loyal is penalized while threatening churn is rewarded. The pattern repeats across geographic markets, suggesting a systemic policy rather than isolated service failures.
