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!
Jane Harvey
Thank you very much for your assistance – I was very happy with your service.

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.
Mulham
My experience was nothing less that perfect. Great Service, seamless process and great outcome.
The guys were able to recover 200GB worth of critical Data from a MacBook Air device.
All in all a positive experience.
Thanks a lot

The service was excellent. The team at Payam Data Recovery was happy to work around my needs and requests to make it happen.
Paul Barber
I would highly recommend Payam to anyone that has had a hard drive fail. It was the worst feeling when it happened but the guys sorted it out with no fuss. Above all else I appreciated not being taken for a ride to get priceless family videos back.
Paul Luxford
My hard drive stopped working and so I took it to Payam Data Recovery and they were able to get all my valuable photos and videos and info back without any issues. I am really happy and will never hesitate to suggest Payam to anyone.
Ben Stevens
When my RAID array failed I was recommended to go straight to Payam. I must say that I experienced some of the best customer service I have ever had. I was most impressed by their flexibility to help me out. Also they did all they could to recover my data, of which 100% was recovered. I wish I knew more people with broken hard drives to recommend to him but in the event it does happen, I will ensure they contact Payam. Bravo.

Payam data recovery are excellent. My USB just stopped working for no reason at all. I sent it to the Laptop manand several other companies, however, none of them could help me get my data off it. I googled data recovery and Payam data recovery is the first web page came up. I liked what I seen and so I sent my USB away and was contacted with great news. payam data recovery recovered all of my files off my usb. The service was excellent. I was updated very regularly, they were quick and super friendly.You won't be disappointed with Payam.

Daniel Matotek
Quality service center, it can be extremely expensive but if you are a business, use no other place these guys are true professionals
Colleen Marlow
Absolutely brilliant. Gray at the Perth office is a lifesaver. Quick quote , quick service. Walked in with tears as my whole world crashed on an external hard drive and walked out with a smile. Highly recommend this company.

After my hard drive died - I was in shock, as I didn't have a back up. A friend recommended "Payam data recovery", as they were able to recover my documents, photos and data... My problems were solved.
While our IT guys were installing my wife's new work system I asked them to have a look at the home PC that had been performing erratically. They took it away and I expected to hear back about some minor problem. Instead they said the hard disk had crashed and despite all their best efforts they couldn't fix the problem. While my wife and I have backup systems for our work PCs we had nothing similar for the home PC. This was not good news. There was a long history of home related correspondence and documents and a large collection of photos taken by our two daughters that were saved on this computer. Our IT guys recommended Payam, so I took the hard drive over to North Sydney hoping for the best. As it turned out I was not disappointed with Payam being able to recover everything. They put it on an external drive, which is now the backup, and all ended well.
Kircy Jong
The service was extremely reliable and took the time to explain the problem as well as the solution. Very accommodating and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

I was told that the likelihood of even recovering my external hard drive was 20-30% from another person.......... but when I took it to Payam they told me they would try their best - and boy did they deliver - They recovered 91% of my lost data - and this was amazing considering I thought I would not have a hope in actually recovering it at all - The team at Payam were beyond Fantastic and I can't thank them enough = I will definitely be using them again if I am ever in a situation like I was.
Kathy Perry
The staff was very good and understanding.
Gaynor Macdonald
Payam recovered almost all my data from an external hard drive - after I had two hard drive crashes in one week. They tried hard but couldn't do the same for a friend so I know how hard they work to make this happen. In both cases, they were excellent to work with, professional and courteous - how all business should be conducted.
Annie McIntosh
Very friendly very helpful successful recovery

Wes from Payam Adelaide was unbelievable. Explained everything and saved our CF Card containing a video job that we couldn't replicate. Amazing. The price was spot on and the service level was first class. Thanks so much!! Your saved our data and our lives
Debora Lewis
Thank you for your professional service from the first enquiry to the end result of my Data being successfully retrieved. Your staff are polite, very helpful and go the extra mile to help customers. If I ever need you services again I would not hesitate as I know my Data is in safe hands. I would strongly recommend this company to anyone that needs that special data saved from a crashed hard drive. Thanks once again.
Daniel Kolic
A big thank you to Payam for recovering our two hard disk drives completely. We had a server running two mirrored SCSI hard disk drives. We thought we were protected, however both hard drives failed. We tried everything we could to recover the information but had no luck. Our last option was to get the professionals at Payam to recover the data for us and they were able to do this within 24 hours. Payam constantly kept us up to date with their progress and were extremely professional. I highly recommend their services.
Kevin Lam
I have used Payam in the past and again more recently and it has been a very pleasant experience on all occasions.
They are great at what they do and provide efficient and friendly service.
I would definitely use them again if the need arises and highly recommend them to anyone interested in their services, you will not be disappointed.

All my personal & work files (6 years worth) were all on my external hard drive, that is until my partner accidentally dropped it. When I went to use it I was not able to read, copy, delete or add files, plus the hard drive was making strange noises which I knew was not good news. I did some research on data recovery companies and called five in Melbourne, PAYAM had the best price and was conveniently located it was also a company whose brand I recognised. Craig was not only able to save 98% of my data but he also kindly spent time explaining everything I needed to know about external hard drives, backup drives etc. – our chat at his office lasted an hour and gave me plenty of useful information to ensure I did not lose my data again. I now have two external hard drives, one which I use regularly and one purely as my backup. Thank you Craig for your exceptional customer service and for saving all my data. Cheers

Super friendly staff (Vinh) and turned an unpleasant task into an easy, stress-free experience. Would definitely recommend!

We use Payam to recover data for our clients. They have never failed to deliver results.
After my hard drive had crashed i initially thought the recovery of lost data would come easy, but soon found out this was not the case. after months of failed attempts and non return phone calls and emails from some other company's i heart about payam data recovery through the radio. the one company i should have dealt with from the beginning, the service and the knowledge the company showed me was great. i am now happy to have 100% of my data recovered and a company i know i can trust if anything had to happen in the future.
Franky Tsang
Just had my drive recovery from them, they saved my life! They are not the cheapest in town but I can say they are the best, if they can't fix it, I don't think anyone else can. A BIG BIG thank you!
Naomi Petersen
Payam Data Recovery have successfully recovered data for me twice. I was delighted to get my data back! and very satisfied with the level of communication and service.

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…
Burt Finlen
I had plenty of experience many years ago with he team, but changed between jobs since then. At my job we had a client destroy a ms surface, unfortunately they did not back up any data at all, everything that was potentially lost was business critical.
I suggested Payam and a co-worker called the Melbourne office in a frantic manner. The staff member we spoke to assured us that the service could be done, and if needed, Payam would have staff there working 24x7 to recover this data. All pricing was discussed and clear. After a bit of back and forth, somehow we ended up speaking to Payam himself, he was great! Such a passionate person to be able to answer a phone and speak directly with the customers he supports.
In the end it turns out we were able to turn the device on just long enough to get what we needed, although we didn't end up needing the service, the entire team at Payam were still cheerful and happy to have spoken to us and be able to provide us with the best possible service. There is no one else in the business I would trust with my data! Thank you Payam and thank you to your team!
Rebecca Freiberg
I was very happy with the data recovery work performed!
Albert Spickler
Excellent service and in a timely manner - i.e. straight away. I would recommend these guys to anyone and I would definitely use them again should the need aver arise again which I hope never does!
Sean Brennan
Thought we’d lost 16 years’ worth of our family photo’s…so relieved and extremely happy Payam recovered 100% from our ‘dead’ HDD. Highly recommend Payam’s professional service, keeping us informed along the entire process.
Chris
Thanks payam , for your amazing recovery . I can't believe that data could be recovered in less than 48 hours .
From the beginning of time during the submission of my Harddrive, you guys showed complete100% customer service . Thankyou to your team.
I found Payam on the internet after my external HDD failed and my IT support at work could not help me out. Craig was very helpful and responded very quickly to my queries. After some tests, all at no charge, Craig informed me of my options. The data I required was urgent and thanks to Payam most of my data was recovered in a timely fashion, at a reasonable price with no hidden costs. I would highly recommend Payam and their services.

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.
Lucy Moxon
Your service was great and I am very pleased with the amount of data recovered.
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!
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.
Lesley Leong
Super efficient, reliable, supportive service provided to me with my data 2 TB hdd. I am very impressed with the service and support provided by Payam Data Recovery in particular Leigh and Kane. Leigh provided the best advice and support from Day 1 from dropping in my hard drive, to assessing it and giving me a response within 24 hours (with no charge). To delivering all my data back (which was so important to my business) and explaining every step of the way. I received all my data near to 100% full data and perfection within 6 business days. My hard drive had bad sectors and encryption errors. These guys are AMAZING. I went to another data recovery business prior to meeting Leigh and the team and did not get near the result I was looking for. Leigh and the team at Payam put me at ease that they are able to salvage my data and they did! Definitely recommend them to anybody who needs data recovery and please go to them first as there are no initial consultation fee and they have the best equipment to do the job in efficient time. Thanks guys! With much appreciation Lesley

My 500GB WD external HDD died and I was horrified to realise that I hadn't updated my backup copy of my photo's! Which means I had lost all my personal / holiday photo's since the beginning of 2010. I did a search on the internet for data recovery places and phoned up three other companies that left me falling off my chair at the prices to recover approximately 300mb of data! (ranged from $700 to $1500). I eventually contacted Payam Data Recovery and was quite relieved to find out the cost of recovery (no hidden fee's - cost was listed on their website) - especially when they will not charge you if they are unable to recover anything. So really you have nothing to lose. The main staff member I dealt with was fantastic, very professional and assisted me when we were arranging drop off of another external HDD and also pick up of the data - the next day. Great service and friendly staff. Would recommend this company to anyone!

Losing my lecture notes when the USB broke wasn't a pleasant experience. Finding Payam and knowing that they could recover all my data was a pleasant and satisfying experience. Thank you!

I was given a 2 GB Olympus memory card purchased new on eBay. Half way through a 4 week trip to the UK, the card stopped working. When we returned home, our computer couldnt read it, so we took it to Olympus to be told it was a counterfeit card. They would have nothing to do with it. We then took it to a forensic computer specialist, who also could do nothing with the card. We came across PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd when doing an internet search. I took the card to the North Sydney Office and was told I would know fairly soon if the photos were recoverable. The card was sent to the Melbourne office and Mark began working on it. He kept me informed about the progress recovering the data. It took longer than originally expected, because not only was the card a forgery, it was only 1GB, not 2 which made a difference in the recovery process. I was very impressed with Marks determination to get the photos and the fact that he would not give up. The time it took was immaterial as I just wanted my photos. I was also impressed that I would be charged a flat fee for the recovery. I would not hesitate to recommend PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. Kim Ker

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!

Payam did a really good job with recovering my files that were in a portable drive that was damaged. Really glad that I entrusted them to do the job!

I was very pleased (and relieved) that Payam were able to recover all the data from my ‘dead’ external hard drive. A very quick and efficient service – thank you.

I had an old but reliable computer system which I depended on for years, for most of my programming tasks and research work. The processor is a Pentium II 100 MHZ, 8 MB RAM running windows 95 as the main operating system (responsible for booting) together with windows 3.11 for workgroups, with two HDD of 424 MB and 540MB capacity respectively. The two drives C (the master drive) and D were compressed using the MS compression program Drvspace which comes with Windows 95. The compression process yielded 4 drives: C as the master drive, D as the subordinate drive, together with two virtual drives H which is the host for C and G which is the host for D. The system was vigilantly protected and was not connected to the internet. The nightmare started during the completion stages of writing my M.Sc. thesis (the relevant data was stored on the D drive), the system crashed unexpectedly due to a physical problem with the master HDD C comprising some bad sectors. Subsequently the corruption led to the modification of the master disk partition tables, which in turn was interpreted by the BIOS in a manner that led to its failure in finding the system files within the booting sector. Accordingly, the booting process was constantly failing with the message DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER Moreover the data on the four drives was not visible! There was no joy at all, when trying to start the system using a system disk, and when running SCANDISK diagnostics on the C drive, there was the indication that the CVF (compressed Volume File) logical structure is intact, with no bad parts. i.e. the FAT, etc but the directories cannot be accessed, as the drive is dismounted, with the advice to mount the drive through installing Drvspace (already installed). A weak earlier to that event, I heard of PAYAM on the radio with the catching phrase We can recover data that is deemed by many as unrecoverable. Luckily on that day I wrote down their web address. I went to seek PAYAMs services regarding my computer problem. When I first got there, I was given a sheet of paper to describe the problem and list the most important directories to be recovered. I was asked to explain the problem orally as well to a very courteous and good listening member of the team. On that same day I was sent an e-mail by PAYAM, listing and explaining the various methods of advanced software recovery which is on offer, and the agreement terms involved. In few words, the PAYAM team was able to recover the entire data on all drives despite the complications arising from the compression procedure (the data had to be decompressed) and the outdated technology involved. What impressed me the most beside their technical prowess was their quick professional responsiveness to enquiries and questions during the period of recovery. During that duration, I was gravely worried to lose my valuable data, and had many questions and suggestions. A PAYAM team member usually communicated with me through e-mail or by returning my phone call, the very same day I raised an issue or had an inquiry. Moreover, on the recovery day, I had a very pleasant and informative chat with one of the team members regarding the most efficient backup methods and reliable storage devices. I am very satisfied with the result I got from the PAYAM team, I was able to recover data that took many years to collate. and which if lost would have been devastating. I would strongly recommend PAYAM recovery services to all my friends and colleagues when facing similar data recovery problems. I would also recommend them to everybody in need of their services, because from what I experienced, they are simply the best in their field.

Just want to say thank you for retrieving my data from a very broken USB stick. It had a lot of important information which I would have been lost without. The whole process was easy and I really appreciated all your help. I will definitely let others know about the service. Thank you again

I dropped my laptop and subsequently damaged the physical HDD. I was referred to Payam Data Recovery by PLE computers in Wangara, Perth W.A. I dealt with Samantha of the Payam data recovery team in Perth and she was so helpful in explaining the process and costs involved to recover all of the data from my damaged drive. PDR had the data recovered in less than 2 weeks and I'm astonished as to the speed of the recovery and of the professional and helpful manner in which I was treated. I would definitely recommend Payam data recovery for everyone that has any data loss issues
