They're national lead aggregators that buy your call, route it to the highest bidder, and the tech who shows up has never been to Crestview before. We dispatch from the Okaloosa County area, with techs who know which roads back up after lunch hour, which neighborhoods need a different gate code, and which subdivisions have a guard at the entrance.
