点评:I contacted this dive center because I was genuinely interested in completing my PADI Open Water Diver course with them.
Before booking, I asked three simple questions:
When is the next course available?
How long should I wait before flying after completing the course?
Is there any discount if two people book together?
I believe these are perfectly reasonable questions, especially for a course costing almost €600. Many dive centers around the world offer discounts for couples or small groups, so I simply wanted to ask.
Instead of answering "No, we don't offer discounts," I was told that I should contact another dive center because my first question was about a discount. I found this response unnecessarily dismissive and unprofessional.
I then explained that I had wanted to do this course for a long time and that my question was based on previous experiences with other dive centers. Unfortunately, there was no attempt to resolve the misunderstanding or continue the conversation.
I cannot comment on the quality of their diving instruction because I never became a student. However, based on my experience as a potential customer, the communication was disappointing and not what I expected from a PADI 5 Star Dive Resort.
翻译:我联系这家潜水中心是因为我真心想在他们那里完成我的 PADI 开放水域潜水员课程。
预订前,我问了三个简单的问题:
下一期课程什么时候开课?
完成课程后我需要等多久才能乘飞机?
如果两个人一起预订,是否有折扣?
我认为这些问题都很合理,尤其考虑到课程费用接近 600 欧元。世界各地很多潜水中心都会为情侣或小团体提供折扣,所以我只是想问问。
他们没有直接回答“不,我们不提供折扣”,而是告诉我应该联系其他潜水中心,因为我的第一个问题就是关于折扣的。我觉得这种回应既不专业又敷衍。
然后我解释说,我一直很想参加这个课程,我的问题是基于之前在其他潜水中心的体验。遗憾的是,他们没有试图消除误会或继续沟通。
由于我最终没有成为他们的学员,所以我无法评价他们的潜水教学质量。然而,根据我作为潜在客户的体验,沟通令人失望,这与我对一家 PADI 五星级潜水度假村的预期不符。
