| Imported post Gav, whats the £15 / month for ? Insurance?? if so is that personal insurance?
Assuming I keep my BSAC membership it'll either cost me £53 for bsac direct membership or if I join another club £38 to bsac then whatever the club fees are (usually less than £60 for an adult club, about 20-30 for a uni club) this includes 3rd party liability insurance up to £5 million quid.
Anyhoo that's a little off my original point: I don't think divers should object to paying for essential training either, and I'm not knocking the Pay And Dive Instantly approach (indeed I very nearly bailed out of the bsac system in my first year through sheer frustration at diving cliques - gah!!). I was very nearly almost prepared to crossover to PADI, but I simply cannot accept that figures of £150+ are justifiable simply to show someone how to use a drysuit.
