If you are doing a Multiple Dive Course, make sure to get a Breakdown of the prices in Writing or Email - Thanks for the Swindle - Easy Divers - Cyprus. Paid up to MSDT and got OWSI

If this has happened to anybody else..... Let everybody know before they make the same mistake
 
Don't you watch Judge Judy? Always get it in writting or an email.
 
Did you get intouch with the company afterwards.
Easy Divers is a reasonable good company in my book.

btw might have been nice if you 1st filled out your profile,before starting your "whine"

No double posting please.
Thank you
 
As I understand it the difference is that MSDT can teach 5 specialties.

Being the consumer, did you make sure that you met the requirements for this?

Have you contacted the Dive Op and asked them why you don't have the desired rating?
 
Curious - How much did you pay an dwhat did you understand that to include vs what you got. I would like to hear the details.

Paid €3000 excluding IDC crew pack and was told everything else was included in the package. This was after I supplied a COMPLETE list of things I would be bringing with me

However when I got there..... low and behold, I had to buy manuals and items of kit if I wanted to complete my courses.

Outraged to say the least.... was informed a month into it that I would only get MSDT prep which was not completed either

I have this information on another laptop in England which I will be forwarding to PADI QA as soon as I get back that side.

I have read through all the requirements and have seen what I should have got
