What era were the PADI elearning… What era were the PADI elearning modules made in? What an incredibly frustrating user experience - 1) the site is outdated and crashes every 2min 2) the videos play and then reload continuously. It already takes 12-15 hours to finish the modules but because the videos keep buffering/reloading its adding an extra 2-3 hrs to my work. Unclear why I paid extra $$$ for this piece of crap.

Unable to login to obtain replacement card I've had the same issue before when I was trying to login to obtain online free dive manual. So I was trying to update my sons junior open water card to an adult. Login and find his record confirm it's him. It then takes me to another login screen. I enter the usual login details and it says invalid username and password. I even try the forgot password option and change it to another and then try and login again and it still does it! Terrible service

An accident waiting to happen... I am disappointed to have not received a response from my email to PADI below which was sent a month ago. As others have said they are just another company happy to take your money. They should be doing regular checks on schools and their standards. Smoking around Nitrox tanks whilst people are checking the contents seems like an accident waiting to happen - it is a shame that their response is likely to come when it is all too late. To Whom it may concern, My partner and I just got back from a holiday in Sharm El Sheikh. We spent much of our holiday diving, which was absolutely brilliant. I was however rather shocked, surprised and disappointed to see that each PADI centre we encountered (of which there were many in Sharm) was teaching students and encouraging divers on the trips to clean their masks with fairy liquid. Fairy liquid is known to be harmful to aquatic organisms and for causing long term adverse affects in the aquatic environment. Most fish will die when detergent concentrations approach 15 parts per million. Detergent concentrations as low as 5ppm will kill fish eggs and they decrease the breeding ability or aquatic organisms too. With the Red Sea attracting thousands of divers a year and hundreds of dive trips taking place here on a daily basis, it is crucial this is brought to your attention, particularly when there are many other options for clearing ones mask - it should be an easy fix. I think much of the problem is a lack of knowledge and this is where I feel PADI is well positioned to make a positive impact. One boat had a huge four gallon bottle filled with fairy liquid mixed with water sloshing around on the deck spilling into the water right over the top of what is described to be "one of the seven wonders of the underwater world" This is atrocious! This should be absolutely banned from being used in every dive centre or they should be faced with losing their PADI accreditation. PADI has got a good reputation and should be willing to discredit any centre that is found to be using the stuff. Divers should be informed of this too. I am sure they would not want to be harming the environment they are enjoy so much. I know there has been a push for 'dive for debris' which I think is fabulous. I would love to see the same push for sharing the knowledge of the damage fairy liquid does to our beautiful marine life and their environment

Granadilla Diving Tenerife wow what an… Granadilla Diving Tenerife wow what an instructor Zeke is. I'm 55 getting on a bit haha. I started from a novice now I'm a AOW with navigation, peak buoyancy, deep dive, DPV and drysuit specialities. He's helped me through all of them specially the drysuit which I struggled hard to do and I wanted to give up on but Zekes patience and tuition got me through it.

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
