You get what you pay for. If you pay $99 for 10 massages it would mean that the school got $49.50 Divide that by 10!
Would yo be willing to work for $2.50 an hour? The other $2.49 would have to cover the overhead. What kind of service can you expect or $2.50?

And really $199 for a year of unlimited laser! Again the company gets half. That is $99.50 Deal find gets the other half. Then you want to get your full legs, brazillian, under arms and lip lasered. You expect them to spend 2 to 3 hours doing the service and you want to go in every 6 weeks! Really? You're expecting to get 25 plus hours of service for $99.50. Would you work for 4 dollars an hour?

Perhaps people should use their brains. How does a business stay in business offering those kinds of deals?

We should not buy these ridiculous deals. Perhaps then the deal find and other companies can find deals for us that make it worth our while as well as worth while for the spa. That is when we will get good service.

After my first experience I realized that ' You Get What You Pay For'.

I cannot warn people strongly enough - do NOT pay in advance for any packages from this company, which also goes by the names of Rivage and Kootenay Medi Spa. They offered 1 year of unlimited laser hair removal for $200 through Dealfind, and are not honouring them. Dealfind has apparently refunded several deals; however, if by some misfortune you pad Zeneba, Rivage or Kootenay directly for any sort of spa packages, you are S.O.L.

Through Teambuy there is now another hair removal deal very similiar to the one offered by Zeneba / Rivage. The new company is called Balance Beauty Clinic. Are they connected?

Those people are just plain incompetent and do not know the meaning of customer service. I had a voucher for the manicure/ pedicure and microdermabraison and I booked online as per their requirements and I phoned a week before to confirm my appt but you know what? I got there only to find that there was no booking on my name. Worse thing is I took a day off to go there. So I wasted my TIME and MONEY.

I had the proof on email sent by their online system but they said that the online booking is not reliable. Well, when i phoned, they told me that the booking HAD to be done online. The manager offered no solution whatsoever and she acknowledges that people are pissed at their service.

Well I hope everybody spreads the word about their LAME service.

I give these guys 0 rating. As may others said, they were unprofessional, older blonde woman stood watching me while I removed my clothes, did not wear gloves, moved laser sporadically around (taking no more that 15 mins to treat all my body areas) and finally, because she was moving SO fast, accidentally hit my hairline where I now have a bald spot on one side.
It hurt like crap when she hit that spot because of all the hair and when I yelped, she just said, Oh You're ok. Well, yes I am ok, but now I have this f***ing bald spot. If only she could have actually targeted the hairs that I wanted removed instead of treating with random movements. Obviously the laser does work, but only if you hit the hairs...
I asked about this onece, and was told that the laser splits and the gel helps it split. Well, let's just say that after this experience I am happy that dealfind is refunding my money. Now I need to see if dealticker will too as I bought some IPL treatments from them before I went in for hair removal and saw all these reviews.

My experience has been the same as everyone else, horrible. I cannot rev iew the actual services since my appointments that I was forced to book 3+ months in advance were cancelled in short notice. The main reason I am writing this review is to warn people, Zeneba is not longer honoring ANY vouchers bought off dealfind. Any refunds will be dealt this dealfind. Zeneba is offering the same deals as they7 were on dealfind but you can purchase it directly from them. WARNING!!! I can not possibly imagine that Zeneba or any othe other names it is operating under (Rivage Spa) will be able to keep its doors open. Regardless of the money that they have made from dealfind or tuition they collect from their poor abused students (who doubtfully get paid anything to perform their services) their BAD reputation will eventually kill their business. I have actually never seen anything with even as close to as bad reviews as Salon. Any further vouchers bought from this company will pocket money for the owner as I am sure their plan must now be to sell as many more vouchers as they can, cancel all apointments or just not let any one book appointments and then pack up shop and lock the doors. What a joke.

I've been to Marvel College before and when I saw this ad, I figured it would be a similar experience.

I did read the reviews and was unsure how much of it was people who have never been to an esthetics school before. Unlike a lot of people, I had no problems booking an appointment and it was not cancelled on me.

The setup and appearance is far from professional, but I wasn't entirely expecting it to be. I did find it awkward to walk up to the third floor through the other areas and no one was even in those other areas.

When I got upstairs, there were already several other women waiting and I was given a questionnaire to fill out. I went into the room for my treatment and was shortly on my way. I got laser hair removal on my upper lip, forearms and legs and the technician took about 10 minutes to do all of it. To be fair, the technician was very nice and did wear gloves while performing the treatment.

After that first treatment, my techician clearly told me that in the future I can simply proceed straight up to the thir floor treatment area, no need to check in at the front desk. However, my next appointment I was yelled at when doing so.


I have seen results after 2 treatments, however I have been having problems book any more. I had to cancel one due to my work schedule changing that week and since then I haven't gotten any response back from the two other appointments I've scheduled.

They clearly are not prepared for the volume they are receiving due to these bargain deals being offered. I just feel bad for patrons who are paying full price for this!

At this point, I'm unlikely to return for further service despite the results I've been getting as I find it very time consuming and inconvenient to book appointments.

They have very poor customer service. I called to change a Nov. appt. because I have a broken leg now. I booked this appt. 4.5 months ago. The girl on the phone could help me rebook, she said I had to do it online. This was almost immposible to do, to get all services in one day. Then she told me it would be about 6 months to get an appt. This just became to time consuming and I don't want to bother with them any more. I am holding 3 vouchers for Zeneba and I have asked Dealfind to refund them all. Just a bad experience all around.

DO NOT give these people your money !!! I purchased a deal on the internet, waited 2 months for my appointment and 1 hour before they left a message on my phone cancelling, good thing I ran home after work and found out. So ok.. they had to cancel..it happens. The message said to call cleo to reschedule, so I did.. no answer, and for days no one returned my call, I left repeated messages even said I expect someone to call me back, and that this was bad customer service. when I finally got a hold of a human, I was told I had to re book online. 3 months later was the next available appt. I booked off work.. drove 30 minutes and I walk up to the desk, looking forward to some pampering. The woman taps away on her computer, looks at me and says "I'm sorry to tell you we have no staff for you." I'm stunned... what do you mean you have no staff?? Well why didn't someone inform me I ask.. to which I got the reply.. "I don't have an answer for you". I said well you sent me a confirmation email yesterday why didn't you say something then? Now granted by now my voice is getting raised and I'm frustrated with this ineptness. The woman tells me I can get my money back from the deal place and to leave. Now it dawns on me... They never had any intention of serving me because I had the audasity to complain about the service months before. Instead of telling me they didn't wish to serve me, they let me believe I was going to get the services I PAID for back in June, knowing full well I wasn't. They didn't care that I lost out on income or gas and travel time. They just had their little joke on me. NEWS FLASH ZENEBA.... your customers DO deserve prompt return phone calls.. especially when it's YOU who messes up the appointment... and customers DO have a right to voice their complaints when they aren't treated fairly or with consideration. You need to treat people properly if you expect them to be happy with your service and to treat you properly. I think this is a scam to get money and not give service.. be very careful people their place doesn't look professional and who knows.. could dash with all our money at any moment. I'm looking into reporting them to the consumer protection agency and the government which gives them grants for their students, who's with me in getting this place shut down ??

I cannot believe that Dealfind is doing yet another deal!! I had bought several $129 deals for 2 manicures/pedicures a month for a year. I bought one as a gift for a friend and we both booked separately for the same day but couldn't get in for two months. The day before our appointment we each got a confirmation email for our appointment. Then 12 hours later got a phone call cancelling. They told my friend that one of their esthetician was sick so that is why they had to cancel but they told me that THREE of their esthetician's were sick and (as an afterthought) so was their receptionist. Neither one of us actually talked to the person we just got a message. Then we were told that we needed to rebook online. Well, this is September and we couldn't get another appointment until December! No way we could possibly get our two/month manicure/pedicure at this rate. Thankfully I got a full refund from Dealfind. What truly disturbs me is that today I see AGAIN another deal from Zeneba offered by Dealfind!!! I urge everyone to stay away from Zeneba, you will probably never get in for your appointment (they do NOT take phone calls, everything is done via the internet) and will only have to go through the hassle of getting your money back.

I bought a 10 massage package on dealfind and after calling over 10 times and leaving messages I booked on line and had to book over 3 months out. the day before my apt they sent an email cancelling and when I went to book on line again they said no further dates available for booking. I then went down to the office and found out the building was empty shelves empty looked like they were going under. The new receptionist just hired told us( as there were more than just me in the same situation) to get our money back as we would never get our massages they sold way too many vouchers and don't have the staff to do them. She said it was a scam.. I know and glad I never got one from there it looked so dirty and dingy.. I have requested my money back from Dealfind and they told me the company was already under investigation. I then called visa and told them to refund my money from Dealfind as they have this problem with lots of companies they deal with. I then reported Zeneba to BBB and filed a complaint to them.. They are not a bbb credited company. Stay away from this so called SPA.. do not get any services from them read other reviews and complaints..

I bought a 10 massage voucher for me for $$99 and was aware it was a school. I have gone to a massage school before and was provided a massage by a student who had completed all text book materials and was getting there hours done. We had a private room and was no different than one done in a clinic except an instructor came in. For 5 minutes to give suggestions. I assumed this school was no different how wrong was I. I called 5 times over a month and never got a call back so I drove over there during business hours. I could not find any one on any of the floors. While there I noticed how dirty it was and all of the massage tables where in one large room no walls or even curtains to separate the tables. I fought with deal find but got my money back.

I bought 2 vouchers for 10 Massage treatments for $99 last June 23, 2011 through Dealfind. I booked an appointment for myself and my husband and the earliest they had available was on July 22, Friday at 11AM. I got a call on the day of the appointment, about 1-2 hours before the scheduled massage from a lady apologizing that they have to cancel our appointment and so with other clients because they didn't have enough staff (2 did not show up). We were disappointed but we understood their situation so we agreed to re-book. The lady booked us for August 2 at noon. She promised that our appointment will not be cancelled again. We drove for 30 minutes to their office on August 2. The receptionist checked our names and said proceed to the 3rd floor. We went there only to be told by what appeared to be the supervisor (very rude) that our names were not on her list and there is no way that she can book us in because she didn't have enough staff. She said some students did not show up again. We were absolutely flabbergasted! On our way down, one of the students/staff apologized because she was there when we were upstairs talking to her supervisor and she said she truly apologized and informed us that this has happened not only to us but to other clients. When we got down to their main reception area, we talked to the receptionist and she insisted that we were on the list and we should have our massages. She went upstairs hoping to resolve the issue. She came down with another lady, I forgot the name, but she said she is one of the instructors, and she apologized for what happened but she can't do anything. She said she was the one who called and I spoke with on July 22 to do the last minute cancellation and re-scheduling. She told us that we can complain to the owner/manager of Zeneba who probably doesn't know what is happening. Anyway, we left that office totally upset and was strongly comtemplating of cancelling the deals. Before the August 2 incident, I've already did an online booking for the supposedly second appointment for Sept 2 so I thought we'll see if it will be better by that time- trying to be considerate and because I thought the deal is really good anyways. On Aug 16, I got an email that the appointment was cancelled for Sept. 2. I called right away and spoke to the new receptionist and she said that we are booked. I told her I just got an email and it's stating that it's cancelled. She insisted that it's booked and she will send me an email confirmation. I later got an email stating that the appointment has been "changed". After all that's happened, I've lost trust in this company. My husband and I haven't used their massage service at all and all we got is stress, wasted time & gas to drive there, and a whole lot of frustrations. I've requested for a refund from Dealfind and am waiting for a reply.

I went to Zeneba for the "Dealfind" special. To start with, it is such weird set up. You must go up three flights of stairs and odd hallways. The reception desk gal had to ask someone on the floor a question, so she must leave you there and go up the three flights. Onece up there, the head lady proceded to ream out her massage gal and she was very curt and rough with everyone. Another couple came for a massage while I was waiting and they had been reschudled two times already and she told them she was overbooked and lacking staff so told the lady to rebook again. My massage gal appologized for what happened out front. The massage gal was fearful and inexperienced but did her best. The head lady did my manicure and pedicure. The manicure was done in the chair for the pedicure. The water to soak your hands in was cold water. I would not consider going back again.It was anything but a nice relaxing experience. Aug. 2011

This school has moved again now at 42 Ave SE. This school had a good reputation before new owner took over. I only enrolled in one Module (thank goodness)The course was advertised as a three week duration of 105 hrs. Mon to Fri. 9am-4pm.Classes were actually from 9-3:30 (1 hr lunch) so you only got about 82 hrs. of instruction. I paid for 105 hrs. !!! The course did not cover everything stated in brouchure. After writing my final exam and getting a 90% I was entitled to my diploma. I waited a week then contacted owner. He said was not informed I finished and instructor gone till next month. After much heated discussion he said I could pick up in one week. A week later still not done,I finally got it three weeks after finishing course.This school is in need of a health inspection there was a water leak in front entrance still there at April 7 th and the students are expected to clean and empty garbage every Friday plus there is little to no ventilation.I'am now finishing some more training at a different school and what a dfference new school is organized ,clean and instructors teach what is spcified in brouchures. I will never ever recomend Zeneba to anyone interested in esthetics.

This school was great when the Europeans owned it, as i've heard from a few students who have attended there, but now under new management it is just horrible...We are forced to clean and do janitorial duties including: sweeping and mopping floors, cleaning out washrooms and toilets, taking out garbage, and a few of which are not meant for a PAYING student to do; this is a janitors job, or even the owners if they do not feel the desire to hire one. Not all of our schooling we payed for is taught to us, and is not taught to us in the basic standard we will need to know when we go out into the working world of esthetics. Some of the instructors are very rude and inconsiderate towards others, and treat many of the students like garbage, as well as using threatening tones to do as they are asked of doing - ex. cleaning duties,questions,etc. There is no administrator, and it is very hard to ask questions about our schooling unless you are willing to get into an argument.Many who come to check out this school luckily have seen the unorganization and chose to go to another school =)

On the flip side, we do have a couple very amazing instructors who are the only reason I can get through this schooling, and wanting to learn from them. Unfortunately who knows how long they will put up with this school either..

They do not provide proper theory notes ( spelling mistakes, false claims ) , not even text books. The owner does not care about the education provided to his students, only about the money!! Very discriminating against women and the staff is treated garbage! Run if you can!!!!!!!!!!

Well, this is September and we couldn't get another appointment until December! No way we could possibly get our two/month manicure/pedicure at this rate. Thankfully I got a full refund from Dealfind. What truly disturbs me is that today I see AGAIN another deal from Zeneba offered by Dealfind!!! I urge everyone to stay away from Zeneba, you will probably never get in for your appointment (they do NOT take phone calls, everything is done via the internet) and will only have to go through the hassle of getting your money back.

I bought a 10 massage package on dealfind and after calling over 10 times and leaving messages I booked on line and had to book over 3 months out. the day before my apt they sent an email cancelling and when I went to book on line again they said no further dates available for booking. I then went down to the office and found out the building was empty shelves empty looked like they were going under. The new receptionist just hired told us( as there were more than just me in the same situation) to get our money back as we would never get our massages they sold way too many vouchers and don't have the staff to do them. She said it was a scam.. I know and glad I never got one from there it looked so dirty and dingy.. I have requested my money back from Dealfind and they told me the company was already under investigation. I then called visa and told them to refund my money from Dealfind as they have this problem with lots of companies they deal with. I then reported Zeneba to BBB and filed a complaint to them.. They are not a bbb credited company. Stay away from this so called SPA.. do not get any services from them read other reviews and complaints..

The place was so gross, that I stepped on toe nail cuttings as I walked across the floor. I don't think the place saw a mop in years. YUCK! How could a place like this take money to train young people. What a disgrace!! I will be asking for my money back from Deal find
Buyer Beware

I bought a 10 massage voucher for me for $$99 and was aware it was a school. I have gone to a massage school before and was provided a massage by a student who had completed all text book materials and was getting there hours done. We had a private room and was no different than one done in a clinic except an instructor came in. For 5 minutes to give suggestions. I assumed this school was no different how wrong was I. I called 5 times over a month and never got a call back so I drove over there during business hours. I could not find any one on any of the floors. While there I noticed how dirty it was and all of the massage tables where in one large room no walls or even curtains to separate the tables. I fought with deal find but got my money back.

I bought 2 vouchers for 10 Massage treatments for $99 last June 23, 2011 through Dealfind. I booked an appointment for myself and my husband and the earliest they had available was on July 22, Friday at 11AM. I got a call on the day of the appointment, about 1-2 hours before the scheduled massage from a lady apologizing that they have to cancel our appointment and so with other clients because they didn't have enough staff (2 did not show up). We were disappointed but we understood their situation so we agreed to re-book. The lady booked us for August 2 at noon. She promised that our appointment will not be cancelled again. We drove for 30 minutes to their office on August 2. The receptionist checked our names and said proceed to the 3rd floor. We went there only to be told by what appeared to be the supervisor (very rude) that our names were not on her list and there is no way that she can book us in because she didn't have enough staff. She said some students did not show up again. We were absolutely flabbergasted! On our way down, one of the students/staff apologized because she was there when we were upstairs talking to her supervisor and she said she truly apologized and informed us that this has happened not only to us but to other clients. When we got down to their main reception area, we talked to the receptionist and she insisted that we were on the list and we should have our massages. She went upstairs hoping to resolve the issue. She came down with another lady, I forgot the name, but she said she is one of the instructors, and she apologized for what happened but she can't do anything. She said she was the one who called and I spoke with on July 22 to do the last minute cancellation and re-scheduling. She told us that we can complain to the owner/manager of Zeneba who probably doesn't know what is happening. Anyway, we left that office totally upset and was strongly comtemplating of cancelling the deals. Before the August 2 incident, I've already did an online booking for the supposedly second appointment for Sept 2 so I thought we'll see if it will be better by that time- trying to be considerate and because I thought the deal is really good anyways. On Aug 16, I got an email that the appointment was cancelled for Sept. 2. I called right away and spoke to the new receptionist and she said that we are booked. I told her I just got an email and it's stating that it's cancelled. She insisted that it's booked and she will send me an email confirmation. I later got an email stating that the appointment has been "changed". After all that's happened, I've lost trust in this company. My husband and I haven't used their massage service at all and all we got is stress, wasted time & gas to drive there, and a whole lot of frustrations. I've requested for a refund from Dealfind and am waiting for a reply.

I went to Zeneba for the "Dealfind" special. To start with, it is such weird set up. You must go up three flights of stairs and odd hallways. The reception desk gal had to ask someone on the floor a question, so she must leave you there and go up the three flights. Onece up there, the head lady proceded to ream out her massage gal and she was very curt and rough with everyone. Another couple came for a massage while I was waiting and they had been reschudled two times already and she told them she was overbooked and lacking staff so told the lady to rebook again. My massage gal appologized for what happened out front. The massage gal was fearful and inexperienced but did her best. The head lady did my manicure and pedicure. The manicure was done in the chair for the pedicure. The water to soak your hands in was cold water. I would not consider going back again.It was anything but a nice relaxing experience. Aug. 2011

This school has moved again now at 42 Ave SE. This school had a good reputation before new owner took over. I only enrolled in one Module (thank goodness)The course was advertised as a three week duration of 105 hrs. Mon to Fri. 9am-4pm.Classes were actually from 9-3:30 (1 hr lunch) so you only got about 82 hrs. of instruction. I paid for 105 hrs. !!! The course did not cover everything stated in brouchure. After writing my final exam and getting a 90% I was entitled to my diploma. I waited a week then contacted owner. He said was not informed I finished and instructor gone till next month. After much heated discussion he said I could pick up in one week. A week later still not done,I finally got it three weeks after finishing course.This school is in need of a health inspection there was a water leak in front entrance still there at April 7 th and the students are expected to clean and empty garbage every Friday plus there is little to no ventilation.I'am now finishing some more training at a different school and what a dfference new school is organized ,clean and instructors teach what is spcified in brouchures. I will never ever recomend Zeneba to anyone interested in esthetics.

This school was great when the Europeans owned it, as i've heard from a few students who have attended there, but now under new management it is just horrible...We are forced to clean and do janitorial duties including: sweeping and mopping floors, cleaning out washrooms and toilets, taking out garbage, and a few of which are not meant for a PAYING student to do; this is a janitors job, or even the owners if they do not feel the desire to hire one. Not all of our schooling we payed for is taught to us, and is not taught to us in the basic standard we will need to know when we go out into the working world of esthetics. Some of the instructors are very rude and inconsiderate towards others, and treat many of the students like garbage, as well as using threatening tones to do as they are asked of doing - ex. cleaning duties,questions,etc. There is no administrator, and it is very hard to ask questions about our schooling unless you are willing to get into an argument.Many who come to check out this school luckily have seen the unorganization and chose to go to another school =)

On the flip side, we do have a couple very amazing instructors who are the only reason I can get through this schooling, and wanting to learn from them. Unfortunately who knows how long they will put up with this school either..

This school is horrible, i dont suggest anybody go there. Not just from my experience but all the people around me while i was trainig there. They do not provide proper theory notes ( spelling mistakes, false claims ) , not even text books. The owner does not care about the education provided to his students, only about the money!! Very discriminating against women and the staff is treated garbage! Run if you can!!!!!!!!!!
