Literally no customer service if you have a bad experience We had an awful experience with a dive centre and reported to PADI QA process. PADI couldn’t have been any less interested. PADI could have at least refunded us for the e-learning that we had paid for in good faith even if they could not force the centre to issue our refund. Instead they have kept our money despite knowing that we couldn’t complete our course. I cannot understand the poor customer service and lack of support when dive centres do not meet basic standards. It really is a case that once they have your money they do not care.

Here an alternative for $55 e-Card scam It's almost unbelievable that you have to pay $55 as a certified diver just to have your certification card displayed in the app. In the past, you could still search for your certification in the online database and show it to the dive center whenever needed. Nowadays, only the dive centers themselves have access to that. PADI truly lives up to its acronym "Put Another Dollar In." Paying $55 just to have an e-Card displayed in the app is utterly outrageous. I definitely won't go along with that. Here's how you can bypass this nonsense: 1. Uninstall your PADI app. 2. Ask your dive center to look you up in the database and provide you with a screenshot of your certification. 3. Save this screenshot and use it for all your future dives.

Received Padi Club membership offer in… Received Padi Club membership offer in the mail today, decided to look at reviews online before spending the $29.95 to sign up. Glad I did! So many recent reviews stating the site it pretty much useless. I'm confused, how could a powerful reputable organization like PADI let an important tool slip through the cracks?

Padi.com fire all your web devs and the… Padi.com fire all your web devs and the company that is managing your website now and hire people that know what they are doing. It's actually not that difficult to produce a decent working website, but yours is the exception For a website to be this bad in 2023 is unbelievable, I'd say it's 20 years since I experienced problems like I am experiencing with Padi.com.

Absolute 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
