We had a similar problem in our club. A lad couldn't hire a suit from Stoney Cove because he had no dry suit qualification, even though he had regularly dived in one before. In the end we convinced them by sending in a few instructors.
As a result, a couple of people in the club who often hire dry suits decided to do the BSAC 'dry suit training' course, which is a half day course with two dives that costs a fiver and can be run by pretty much anyone. It gives you a sticker you can wave under anyone's nose.
There's no requirement in BSAC to do the course, mind.
