Elearning sorely lacking @ an outrageous price I've been trying for days to complete the AOW course online and have had only frustration!! Difficulty signing in, resigning in, unwieldy web pages, loss of my quizzes, no access to the final assessment after a brief questions about my OW recollection and a "passed 100%", errors in my eRecord and ABSOLUTELY NO ONLINE HELP AVAILABLE! All this for $178 which does not include the dives @ $399.99! Registration Code:AZRXYELHLSAS

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.

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.

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.

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
