This has probably been discussed in the past but I couldn't find it:
I am sure there is a good reason but why isn't there computer access to our ID card information for PADI members if they lost their card?
I noticed my card is getting pretty beat up and needs to get replaced. Their website has a form to deal with that but I have nightmares of being at some resort and not being able to dive because my card was lost, stolen, misplaced, etc.
If the dive operator could access a data base (probably for a fee) and look up my student # I would be ok to dive otherwise I would be out of luck. Do dive operators turn a blind eye when a diver shows up without his/her card?no
