Was really thrilled that Payam were able to recover all my data from my broken hard drive. This was done in a really timely manner and I would recommend this company to everyone who was in the same dilemma. Would most definitely use them again.

I am very happy with the service received from Payam. They recovered most (maybe all) the data from from failed my 500gb laptop drive, and provided the service in under 48 hrs, for under $400. Although the full service price was similar to others, I selected PAYAM as they offered a sliding payment scale, meaning that I initially didn't have to put my hand too far in my pocket with no idea of the outcome. That is- the financial risk was lower. I found the staff helpful and polite on the phone,and at the office, and there was even a follow up call to see how I went. I have recommended PAYAM to several of my colleagues and will continue to do so. My experience was very good. When you balance the cost of recreating/assembling your work, the money was well spent. But it is still no substitute for an effective, confirmed backup. But you probably already know that otherwise you wouldn't be reading this review!

WD My passport USB fell off my table last month. After 2 PC repair shops could not help, I called WD support in the USA and they told me to go to Payam. They saved everything for me for only $275. Very helpful and friendly service, Thanks for your help!

Splendid service, recovered a difficult hardware issue for a reasonable price.

We recently had our hard drive crash on our server at work!! Payam data recovery were magnificent!! They retrieved all our data in a fast turnaround. We would highly recommend them to anyone!!

Our 4 drive business storage device had been unsuccessfully backing up for over 6 months (without our knowledge). Upon a second drive failing we finally became aware of the issue. With the failure of the second drive, access to all server information was unavailable.
With six months of valuable information no longer available we put our trust and hopes in Payam Data Recovery. We invested in a quick turnaround and were not disappointed. We are now back on track with all information recovered. Thank you for saving our bacon!!!

When I first realized that I had lost all of my photos on the camera memory card I was devastated. Payam Data recovery were professional, fast and delivered exactly what they said and more. I have been telling all my friend about this service.
Noel Reyes
My wife and I were extremely happy with your service and with the results. Both staff members we dealt with were friendly and very informative. We were given an honest appraisal of the work required and even an option to suit our budget. That you were able to recover the data we wanted most made the experience all the more worthwhile.

I suddenly encountered a problem with my portable HDD which became inaccessible. I have more than 500GB very important data on it. Thanks to the help from Payam Data Recovery, I finally got all my data back. This is really professional service with perfect output. I'm very satisfied.

My external hard drive with all my important personal data, photos and videos just didn't boot up one day when I plugged it in it was working the day before and suddenly stopped working the next. I then took it to my local computer shop in Mandurah who tried to recover the information for me and said that it was most likely that all my data was lost and suggested I try Payam Data Recovery Services in Perth as they were the best in the business but they also did warn me that their services were not cheap. PAYAM in Perth attempted to recover my information however, it had to be sent on to the Sydney Recovery Centre. I can't remember how long the service actually took but I was so happy in receiving the phone call saying that they had managed to recover everything! FANTASTIC! I was so very grateful. I doubt any other place could have done the job they did, and you certainly can trust that they will do the best job possible. This however was back in January this year. You would think that this could not happen TWICE in one year and to the same person. However, in May this year, it happened again. This time the newly recovered hard-drive got zapped by lightning all I know was that the hard drive got really hot and then nothing. I went through the same process as before, going firstly to the Perth office who in turn sent it onto Sydney .. And what magicians they are at the Sydney Recovery Centre. They managed to recover the information for me once again. I can't thank you all enough!! It's very obvious to me now to always go to the best place first. It's worth it. If your data is important to you pay for the service DEFINITELY GO TO PAYAM DATA RECOVERY SERVICES!!!!

I did a lot of research and called a lot of places , I even took my hard drive to a competitor , they couldn't do a thing after 1 week and were disorganized at best. I have extremely valuable information on my hard drive and it was the 2nd time this had happened to me. I was stressed and confused by all the options out there , but the best option is Payam Data recovery. They can never guarantee a result but they were hopefully and they retrieved it all and it was a complicated retrieval but they did it. I highly recommend them and their professional team.

Fantastic service. Craig was very helpful and prompt. Kept you updated along the way. Would highly recommend their services.

Brought in both my 2 TB Segate HDD's gave them to Mark at Payam Data Recovery in St Kilda where he only took couple of days to diagnose my problem which i found to be amazing as they had completely stopped working turns out a simple pcb fault on the drives was nothing that he could not handle and in only 2 weeks he managed to save all my files on both drives 100% for a cheap price i was so very impressed with the time and professionalism mark has showed every step of the way 10/10 would Highly Recommend this service.

Communication from both Payam and Craig in Melbourne was outstanding; I was kep updated on the recovery via email, voice and text and had the data that I thought was lost back in less than a week!

got all our business' data back - yay! can't ask for more than that.
Brendan Cheong
I contacted several different data recovery companies when my Raid 0 array failed. Payam responded the quickest, and not only that, provided me with a range of price options. Their lowest cost option was very competitive and quoted an expected completion time of 4 weeks.
I chose their lowest cost option as I was not in any hurry, but as it turned out, Payam recovered 100% of my data in under 10 days anyway. Communication from Payam was excellent, and I was regularly kept updated of their progress and expected completion time. Their staff was friendly and professional at all times.
I found Payam to be very knowledgeable, experienced, and above all, flexible and very customer centric. I have no reservations in recommending them to anyone
David Kinder
I found that the service I received was better than expected. In fact, it was exceptional. I will certainly recommend you to anyone who may require this service.
Rik Pene
The service and care that was taken during our time of need from having our businesses data corrupted was amazing! It was a stressful time for us but we were put at ease from how professional Kane and Leigh handled the situation. We will always recommend Payam to anyone that requires data recovery services!

Great service...would have been up S$%t creek without a paddle without Payam...
E Kosa
Fast, friendly, efficient service, clearly priced on the web page. Conveniently located in the centre of town. Offered to keep a copy of data until I have created my own back-up. Great communication throughout. Seamless operation. Thanks!
Sarah Ashley
I can't recommend Payam Data Recovery highly enough. They recovered most of my data from a broken memory card that was in the worst possible condition. In fact, it crumbled when I handed it to Vinh, who straight away reassured me there was hope. And to my amazement, 99% of my photos were recovered a few weeks later. So, anyone out there who is panicking, don't stress, till you visit these guys. I also want to mention the wonderful service I received from Vinh, who called and emailed me regularly to give me up dates, as to where he and his team were at, in regards to recovering my data. Thank you so much, to Vinh, and all the wonderful staff at Payam.

Between Xmas and New Year the hard drive failed on my desktop pc and unfortunately I forgot to backup some very important business files. I contacted Payam and got a great quote and they were able to recover 100% of my data-all in less than a week of dropping the hard drive off. Very happy with the service provided by Kane-look no further if this happen to you-very professional service.
Jenny Stern
I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery. My iphone was 100% dead, I tried every possible process to wake it up and had been advised by a number of technicians that it was close to impossible to retrieve any data - Payam Data Recovery were successful. Thank you
Paula Tripp
Excellent service done by Wes. All data was recovered and saved to a new hard drive and completed in good time and returned to me. Only having to pay if able to recover data. Thank you.

I used to work in IT. I'm the guy people (still) come to when they lose their data. I recently did a wedding on a professional SLR, recorded to a compact flash card (very reliable). Somehow, I managed to corrupt my FAT32 partition and corrupt the entire card. I only know that because PAYAM told me. I thought I had busted the hardware - the electronic internals. PAYAM are an honest company, no doubt about it. They charged very, very reasonably considering my circumstances, and they got onto the job faster than they had to. My data was successfully recovered, and my client did not even need to know I had an issue. My reputation is safe because of this company. Rock on.
Roxanne Wiseman
My hard drive died and Payam managed to recover all my precious photos. Super quick and great service!! Thank you so much
James Bomalick
Your service were second to none and I couldn't be happier. I hope I don't need your services in the future, but in any case, I wouldn't hesitate to return and to recommend to other people. Keep it up!
May Lee
Excellent service! Very happy with the results. I particularly appreciated the quick 24 hr turnaround on giving me an estimate.
Vinny Corey
What looked like a hopeless case when strip hard drives failed, was turned around, and for a reasonable price all data was recovered - well over 200 GB. Well done!

LIFE SAVER- I foolishly formatted a memory card which contained the birth and first 2 weeks of pics taken of my first born baby boy. Needless to say, I was devastated and very distraught. After a quick internet search I found PAYAM Data Recovery and all the reviews were highly positive. Craig was extremely professional and honest and within 24 hours he had recovered my precious images at a very reasonable cost. Now I can share these special moments with my son when he grows up and it’s all thanks to the know-how of PAYAM. I would highly recommend them in any circumstance where their services may be required. Thanks Craig and if I could add any more stars to this rating I would…
Michael Crichton
I called every data recovery company in town when my laptop hard drive crashed, I spoke with the guys at Payam on the phone and he was so helpful. In person they explained everything to men and showed me their prices on their web site. Great customer service and clear upfront prices.
Matthew Scowcroft
We were very happy. The quote for the work was realistic and it was done in the timeframe estimated. We have all our data and we’re happy with the results.
Geoff Wells
Payam was very effective, efficient and professional in recovering all data from my MacBook Pro, good Sydney location and open to meet post business demand, (till 6pm), worth a try every data issue time!
KishanGoonniah
I was very happy with the service provided from the free and fast assessment to the total restoration of my data on time and at a great price.
Shane Crawford
I was most impressed with the customer service, the professionalism, knowledge, and the training and education provided by Kevin Harris.
“Kevin me immediately, listened to my problem, advised generally what the problem could be, and the possible difficulties that I could face. Kevin understood my urgency and how it important it was to our business that the data be retrieved.
Kevin, immediately set about identifying the problem, which he did in approximately 10 minutes and explained the process and procedure that was necessary to attempt to retrieve our information. Kevin, is very knowledgeable and was most communicative and really helpful. He also explained how hard drives work, how to protect use them correctly. We had a 100% successful data recovery and I cannot explain how delighted and impressed I am.
The job was completed within a very short time frame and I was kept abreast of all developments all the way through. I will be looking to purchase another hard drive shortly, and will now only deal with Payam Data Recovery. I had a fantastic customer service experience with Kevin who is simply excellent at what he does.
Brad Will
When a SSD Hard drive fails it is always a concern about whether data will be recoverable or not - luckily Payam were able to get all of our required files back off the drive, and at a very good price. Communication along the way was spot on also, would definitely recommend them!
Cayleigh Abel
I absolutely loved dealing with everyone at Payam the process was super-efficient and professional and all my data was recovered! My computer was drenched in water and I thought I would have had to pay a fortune to retrieve everything but i was given a reasonable price and quick recovery time. Thank you so much again, really saved me!!
Audrey Dyer
Thought all the photos from my iphone were gone but after having the phone for only a day, Payam had recovered all the data and sent my iphone back. Could not be happier
Billy Lewis
Fast as, all my data back and the cheapest I could find! Also the student discount was super handy. Cheers Payam
Grace Violet Hodder
I was very happy with the level of service provided to me. I found the frequent updates of the whole process of recovery particularly useful.

Payam Data Recovery at North Syd is great. Very professional and friendly service and price is low. Appreciate that they ring to get permission before they take the next step. They take the cheapest option possible. Would highly recommend them to anyone who seek to recover lost data.
Brad Cann
Friendly staff, perfect services. My 500GB hdd has MBR corrupted and I tried couple of recovery software but unsuccessful. I brought it to Payam Data Recovery with very little hope but they help me to recover everything. I would recommend this service to my friends.

I recently lost important data on an external hard drive. I was referred to Payam by my IT department. They had no prior experience of them but sent me their contact details based on website information. I received prompt and kind service. I was listened to carefully, given realistic expectations of the recovery outcome and shown empathy in relation to my frustration. The parking and access facilitated the speedy service. I did not see anyone dressed like the image in the website. I experienced a highly professional service. Strongly recommend.
Angus Keenan
Great customer service, and work time. When my sever crashed and looked to have lost my thousands of hours worth of work... They worked their magic and got 100% of my files back! Highly recommended! Great start to the week!!
Murray Hobson
I had a failed 2TB portable drive and required the info from it as I had not recently backed it up. I went to Payam Data Recovery who recovered all my information and installed it onto a new portable hard drive. I was kept informed during the process and everything was smooth.
I cannot recommend Payam Data Recovery strongly enough for any data recovery that you require.
Terri Bork
Payam provided a professional and prompt service in recovering data from my Macbook Pro which had been water damaged. Unlike some other companies, their quote was free and the fee was only payable if they successfully recovered the data.
Mudassar Hafeez
An exceptional service, uncompromised quality, excellent customer service and job well done. Highly recommended. Don't go anywhere if need your data back at any cost. Just use Payam and sit back and relax 🙂
Keep up the good work team
When my 400GB Western Digital external hard drive died, I almost died with it. I had LOTS of photo's (including irreplaceable photos from when my daughter was born (6 years ago) to now & holiday photo's, etc..), music, movies, financial and personal documents, you name it it was on there, and I didn't have copies of them anywhere else. I mean who backs up their back up?! I googled data recovery, and came across a number of companies that promised to try and recover my data - for an exorbitant amount (from $1500 up to around the $3000 mark). Then I saw Payam's ad. (thank god!) They were central to where I was, and when I called them they were extremely helpful and the price was A LOT cheaper than the other quotes. I dropped into their office with my external hard drive that (Thursday) lunch hour and the technician I spoke to was wonderful. Because of his knowledge, expertise and great customer service I walked out feeling relaxed and more hopeful than what I had been that I would get all my data back. I opted for their regular service, which was meant to take quite a while, but the turnaround was only a few days and before I knew it (early the following week) I had all my data back again! and (for just a little bit extra) all my data was loaded onto a new external hard drive so I didn't have to do it! I would DEFINITELY recommend Payam to my friends and anyone needing data recovery at a reasonable rate!
Tony Peters
Our internal IT team could not recover the data from my hard drive and mentioned you guys as someone who might be able to help out.
You did a great job and on time.
Garth Roche
I was happy with all aspects of the service.
