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!

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

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.

Great Open Water instructor - Hurghada It was fun and great experience to learn diving with Karim Hassan (297715) in Hurghada with PADI office. We took our first Open Water course and it was an absolute pleasure. Karim is a great instructor, explaining everything in a friendly way with humor. Highly recommend.

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
