I received a gift certificate for Egea in Evanston. It was my very first time receiving a professional massage, and I was excited and impressed with the service... until I was about to leave. The receptionist stopped me and informed me that my gift card was only for $55.00, and I had received $85.00 worth of services. I was confused. I had not asked for extra services, nor had anyone informed me before my massage that my gift card was not sufficient. I was not shown price list or asked what I wanted. Yet, somehow, I was billed for an $85.00 massage without my consent or knowledge. I've heard of businesses doing this before. It's dishonest. It's theft. My advice is to not trust this company. If you have received a gift card for this establishment, let them know that you will not stand for this type of trickery.
I will certainly never go back. I will not reward thieves with my business.
