GBDreadful software and cannot be… Dreadful software and cannot be accessed. I'm extremely disappointed with the software. My daughter is booked in to do her Open Water in 5 weeks' time. I've purchased the online course and yet neither of us can access it (whether using Chrome, Explorer or Safari). No live chat or obvious assistance. Absolute waste of money and quite where we go from here remains to be seen.

CAAbsolute Trashfire of a company Absolute Trashfire of a company, No information how to buy credits, hours waiting on the phone, passed around from organization to org. I straight-up refuse to teach under PADI anymore, i tell people Ill do recerts under SSI or nothing. DO NOT CERTIFY UNDER PADI, GO TO SSI! or you will have nothing but problems in the future

CAWorst website/app in existence Worst website/app in existence. Imported duplicates from my ScubaEarth account as well as 'forgot' some. Also shows duplicate certifications. Ended up having to delete everything then re-log all my dives (over 40+ dives) and even know the website shows the correct # of dives - the hours logged is wrong and it is missing all my dives from 2017 (although the # of dives shown is correct). The PADI app on Android seems okay. The slider bars, forcing you to select a site PLUS asking you to rate a dive site is inefficient and wastes time. No way to 'save' your dive buddy and no way to export dive logs (see Diviac for ideas)

MYAwful Web Site, Worse App and non-existent support Good grief! How bad can it be!? Very, apparently. Loggin into the very poorly designed, laid out and implemented web site took a number of attempts. Why so many large adverts? Once I am finally in, guess what, no certifications on record. But, doing a verification check yields all 3 of my certifications, scuba, open water and advanced open water. Trying to raise a support ticket took 3 attempts. Trying to create a Revalidate fails every time with a blank screen. Seriously!? For a global organisation that is supposed to be promoting safe, competent diving and global awareness, this is a massive FAIL! Next step is to switch my certifications to SSI

GBHugely frustrating Hugely frustrating. I completed a very expensive course and did not receive a ‘card’ assuming it would simply be on my profile on the PADI site (which I have with my photo and certificate number). However they are trying to charge me for a replacement e-card at £42. They should already provide this e-card on your profile upon completion of their qualification. If I complete the course, I expect proof of the qualification as standard. Hugely disappointing here. A pure money maker and not much else. The one star given here is on the generous side
