PADIReviews of padi.com

I was wondering if I'm the only one. Doesn't look like... I logged into the "pro's website" and now I can't log out anymore. Doesn't matter if I'm clicking on log out and then restart the browser or closing the page. I'm still logged into my account. Do I really have to delete the cookies to log out safely?! I usually don't write reviews but I'm fed up with PADI. There's always a new problem when I try to use the joke of an APP or the page. I have serious doubts about the safety of my data on their page. Why don't you take the responses of the people serious PADI?! I wouldn't trust any company with such an amount of negative feedback.

Neu erhält man keine Plastikkarten mehr. Diese kostet zusätzlich 48CHF. Man erhält nur noch die eCard welche in der PADI App angezeigt werden kann. Möchte man nun die bestehenden Karten auch in der App haben um alles zu vereinen, kostet es ebenfalls nochmals 48CHF pro eCard. Für was 48CHF? Um ein bestehendes Zertifikat einer App hinzuzufügen was vielleicht grad mal 5 Min. dauert? Bei direkter Nachfrage erhält man keine Antwort auf die Frage: Mit was ist dieser Preis gerechtfertigt? Auch kommt PADI einem nicht entgegen.

The app is useless. I cannot view the details of my certification there. I tried going to learning.padi.com /certifications and all I see is a list of my certs - just the name of the certs, that's it! Clicking on it asks you to purchase an e-card if you haven't purchased it for $48 - it gives no other relevant details. I have also read their responses to other comments about e-cards - about "how it is optional and your plastic card should work everywhere". So my question is if it is optional - why charge $48. It would be great to just have a digital copy of your card with you. We live in a digital age, and everyone from my credit card company to my transit card to my airline boarding pass provides a digital copy of my plastic card. It should be a convenience that PADI should offer its customers. About the dive log - it's terrible. Having worked in the field of building consumer web products, I can tell you I could have done a better job of it as a teenager. Half the inputs in there don't save properly, images that I upload don't show up. And the worst part, I cannot access the log on the mobile app - it redirects you from the PADI app to load it on the mobile web broswer. My question is - why bother running a website that you clearly do not seem to want to support or invest in?

Padi sucks… their app is sub par. They claim to want to support the ocean and the environment yet they want to change $48 for EACH e-card!! I have four certificates … That’s so beyond ridiculous!! You do not love the ocean if you are going to charge an arm and a leg for e-cards instead of making e-card the default and charge more for plastic cards!!! I am going to transfer to another company likely SSI. The SSI app is amazing! And my ecerts are all right in the app!

I'm trying to do the Advanced Open Water Diver ecourse but the content doesn't load. I have been trying for days and there's no change.

Having completed sections of the course only ti discover they were not saved today I sat down to take the final assessment. I passed on 96 percent but again it didn’t save then said I had not me standard. I begrudgingly tried to retake only for the assessment to freeze and not allow me to go on. I have his had 4 attempts at a assessment I already passed snd can’t recomplete as the website is not working properly. My son was also doing his assessment today I’m another part of the country and had the sand issue. Not happy at all.

50€ for an e card if you already have the plastic card ... should be free an updated with experience !

They charge roughly £40 to have the ‘digital’ version of your license. It’s a rip off. Use SSI instead of padi they aren’t going to tap you up for more money after you have qualified.
