Would not recommend

Visit Date: April 2012

This company is in someones back garden, you are very cramped in the classroom and in the swimming pool. The staff are unfriendly and have no patience for beginners. Jason Linbourne was unprofessional and became irrate. Would not recommend

Packed in the pool

2 Star Rating

Visit Date: May 2011

Went on a course during May 2011 as a B'day present.

London Scuba’s 5 star (Padi rated) purpose built pool had sharp edges cos of missing tiles. Would have preferred going to the local swimming baths.

We were packed into the pool, which created a good team atmosphere.The group was a 'good' crowd and we all mucked in together. Had fun!

The staff are keen and helpful. Nice pub over the road.

Hidden costs and 5 star purpose built pool

1 Star Rating

Visit Date: May 2011

Hi,

Bought my 'Open water' referal course via a voucher.

Additional extras are

+£45 suppliment to have a 2 day course covering a sunday (mentioned on the voucher)

Not mentioned ....

+£27 for the text book (needed for the course)

+£5 Diving diary

+££ for extending the validiity of the voucher (if required)

The pool had tiles missing exposing rough edges! So I would NOT want to see a 4 star pool.

The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable.

Gate is easy to find it's opposite the local pub. Parking is easy and behind a secure gate.

London Scuba isn't in London. nearer Gatwick. London around 30 miles away. Brighton around a little over 30 miles.

Steve
