Dear Padi company / team that are… Dear Padi company / team that are responsible for making their website and app, Do better. Provide a more intuitive experience when using your products. Ask your users how they would like to use your tools. Create user flow diagrams to understand the user stories of your customers. Most of all don’t hire a cheap terrible company or person to make your products as it really effects your organization’s image.

Awful 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

Hugely 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

PADI centers providing really poor… PADI centers providing really poor experiences and despite PADI being the provider of this courses they refuse to openly take action and help customer. Don't go to PADI unless you want to get drowned! UPDATE Following the bad reviews here they have reply to me bellow as you can see inviting me to have a private conversation. During the conversation they didn't actually offer a solution or something better but instead they have just tried to divert the conversation from public into private so less people to be aware of. Don't do Padi but instead go any alternative!

Poor quality online learning. Did not receive all learning materials Poor quality online learning material. Equipment referred to in the learning material that should have been provided as part of the package was not supplied by PADI. I have contacted PADI on 3 separate occasions and have yet to receive a response. Very poor customer service, PADI has no platform for feedback so free to charge extortionate prices and deliver little. Hugely disappointing.
