Looking at my area (S. Northants), some of the 'feedback' looks as
if it migh have been posted by the trader, e.g.:

Don't see any user feedback from him. Seems their system is like ebay
in that you can only leave feedback when they log a paid transaction.

I can't see it being economical for most tradesmen as you are paying a
lot for 'leads' (£40+vat/quarter) and any leads that work you pay them
5% +vat of the invoice amount. There will be a lot of tyre kickers on
that site or people just fishing for prices. Maybe that explains the
lack of feedback for samm_developments

Most of these sites are a complete waste of time & a rip off for the
tradesman.
