I was devastated when my local computer shop told me they could not recover the contents of my External HDD. They could ghost it, but couldn't get the files to open. The young fellow in the shop, after much research myself, gave me PAYAM's web address and I contacted them in their Sydney office. (much cheaper than everyone else I contacted) They got all of my files back except 1. How good is that....... Would definitely recommend them to anyone with Drive problems!

This company retrieved my data from a mechanical malfunction of some sort from my hard drive. The hard drive could not be accessed using any computer yet Payam managed to get it all off & onto an external hard drive for me. Using the priority service was extremely prompt & the service was friendly and communicative & I was more than happy to pay the fee based on the amount of work it saved me from having to try & re input etc. Hopefully I do not need their services again but if I do have data recovery issues ever I would deal with them I was that happy with their work

I recently moved states and regrettably I didn't backup my HDD, thankfully Payam was around to recover what I thought was lost, double thumbs up for sure and if I ever have the trouble again I'll be back for the excellent service and great people at Payam Brisbane!

Couldn't recommend highly enough amazing results always informing you on the process and just amazing with customer service
Simone McDonald
Hey guys, I’m so happy and grateful for all the work you have done. I was afraid that I would have lost everything but you saved all my files. If I have any more troubles I’m definitely calling you guys.

I had a failed RAID pair and a backup drive that died in the same week - the perfect storm. Payam in Sydney recovered everything for a really reasonable cost.
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.

Great service...would have been up S$%t creek without a paddle without Payam...

Dropped my iPhone in the toilet - these guys retrieved all my data in 1-2 weeks! Super happy with their service. Very helpful guys
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.

Your service was excellent and I couldn’t fault it. Communication, pricing and the processing timing was made very clear and reiterated a number of times. My dead mobile phone was processed surprisingly quickly and the data I wanted to retrieve was recovered.

I cannot rate the service provided by Payam Data Recovery highly enough! I have done a few big things in my life, such as getting married and building a house where you would reasonably expect to receive great service, but this exceeded even those!!! Payam are very transparent and upfront about the service they provide and so you can rest assured that they will do everything to get your data back. The emails I received along the way were both regular - so I never had to wonder what was going on - and they addressed every question before I had even thought of it. The shipping and payment process is simple and hassle free. This is a good, honest Australian company and the best at what they do

I dropped my hard drive and it stopped working, it had all my photos and important back ups on there, I sent it to a data recovery company who spent 3 days on it and said they could not find anything on there and that my data was gone!!! not wanting to accept this I found Payam Data recovery and sent it to them, they were able to diagnose why my drive was showing no data and bypass the encryption in a way that allowed them to get the data off they managed to save everything which was a massive relief to me and my partner! the staff where professional and courteous at all times and sensitive to the stress full situation I was in, I will forever be in debt to them for the work they did!
Jia
The service is so professional. Also, they gave me back earlier than they promised. All data comes back, which saves my day
Chad Jason
Payam saved seven years worth of our family photos. They extracted data where others had failed, did it in a short turnaround, offered a great price and were very positive to deal with. 100% recommend!
Besharl Hein
You did a great job from start to finish, and it was very much appreciated.
Johann Kruse
Mike and the rest of the Payam team were awesome… they really saved the day when they recovered all of my baby photos/videos after both my NAS and cloud backup failed. Super happy with the service.
Michael Payne
I am writing to tell you how satisfied I am with the service that you and PAYAM provided.
As you may remember, I had a WD Passport drive that had archived mail files, presentations and documents stored on it. The drive died during a trip overseas and I was desperate to recover the information. I found your advertisement on the internet and also found some independent references on other forums and blogs as to the quality of work that PAYAM was able to provide.
Costing was visible, nothing was hidden.
From the first phone call contact, to the final pickup, PAYAM provided exemplary service and support. Email replies were fast, and the phone support was excellent - Craig Nevans is an excellent resource and a real asset in critical situations like this where communication is vital.
At all times I knew the situation with the recovery and the process. Despite the possibility that the information would not be able to be recovered, you were able to retrieve the documents and mail files and so I am able to maintain my archives and so avoid a significant amount of work and also heart-ache when trying to look for older information.
I would recommend PAYAM to anyone in a similar situation who needs honest, professional cost effective service and support. Thank you again.
Duncan Marshall
I had a great experience when a NAS enclosure failed. PDR were able to quickly ascertain that the disks and associated data were intact, and recovered all data, whilst keeping me informed of the progress.. Great service. Well done
Mark Irving
Awesome Job…Thanks!
Sharon Roberts
I was extremely happy with all aspects of Payam Data Recovery. From the 1st phone conversation to receiving my recovered data. Kane went above and beyond in answering all my questions, and even ran through future backup procedures and appropriate dealings with External Hard Disk Drives. Definitely a happy customer. Thanks heaps guys.
Tony B
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.
Michelle
I was devastated when our hard drive consisting of 3000 photos, including our kids baby photos decided to pack it in. We were told by a friend in forensics, there was only a 10% chance of retrieving them. He asked a colleague for a recommendation & this colleague recommended Payam! Thank goodness! Keith & the team recovered ALL our photos & files!!! I was so overwhelmed I started crying! Thank you so very much Payam, from an eternally grateful & happy customer!
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.
Wallace McGee
Your work was prompt, efficient and achieved 100% recovery. Excellent work and excellent service.
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.
Jai Robinson
Great communication, great service, prompt. Not much more to say. Couldn't be happier with results would highly recommend
Tania Pickering
“I was really happy. I will recommend you guys!
Elly Hurley
I recently had a need to use Payam Data Recovery as my Mac crashed partway through an update and my Time Machine Backup would not mount! It was panic stations all round - years of photo's, emails and other data that wasn't in Dropbox potentially erased...
Luckily I chose Payam Data Recovery to recover the data from my Time Capsule. Keith and Payam were brilliant, they were quietly confident from the outset they could get my data back, and they did. Not only did they provide me with all the data in folders I could use, they were able to get the SparseBundle onto another disk - so I effectively got all of my data back. I would highly recommend this company for any data recovery you need. They are professional and understanding of the emotional needs of someone that's facing a potential disaster. Thank you Payam and Keith, so pleased to have found you
Emily B.
Fantastic service from start to finish. Professional, fast and friendly. Thank you for saving us a lot of time, money and heartache from lost files. Kevin, you rock!!

"The main board on my notebook computer collapsed while I was working overseas. It was not able to be repaired. I was not unduly worried as I knew that I would be able to recover all the data off my hard disk and transfer it to a new computer.
Unfortunately it was not quite as easy as that. I was able to transfer most of my files but some key files could not be recovered. It turned out that some files were encrypted and there was nothing that I could do to get access to the data, which included all the files needed to file my BAS return. A few years earlier, while working on a special contract, my notebook computer had been set up as the master computer in a small network we established so that the others in the team could access our printer. My computer had had encryption placed on the files to ensure their security. The encryption was removed when the network was dismantled. What I did not realise was that the encryption remained on a number of the pre-existing files.
When I returned to Australia with my non-functioning computer, the repairer suggested that Payam might be able to recover my data for me. I took my hard disk to Payam to see what they could do for me. A couple of hours later they rang to say that they had recovered all my data, apart from a couple of inconsequential files. That was wonderful news as I was not relishing the prospect of attempting to reconstruct all my inadvertently encrypted files. Payam gave me a CD with all the data files from my hard disk and I was able to transfer them to my new computer without any problems.
The recovery process was very straightforward for Payam, as my hard disk contained the encryption algorithm, and they were able to access that algorithm. I might have been able to do something similar had I been able to find an identical computer to my non-working notebook computer, already an obsolete model, with an identical operating system, and install my hard disk on that computer. That was an uncertain and highly stressful undertaking, so I was extremely relieved that Payam had a straightforward process to access my encrypted data.

This service is expensive but it is worth the money if you really need to recover your important data.
Brett Vincent
We are a small computer sales and repairs shop, which uses Payam to recover data from our customers hard drives when our tools and systems cannot. Their service is professional, and the thing I really like is that they kept me informed at all stages of the recovery. Best in class service.”

Before dealing with your company I was under the impression that data recovery is a very expensive and troublesome experience to be avoided at all costs. I was referred to you by my IT person, who gave a good report from a previous experience of referring a customer. After receiving an outline of your services I was pleased to discover you offer a range of levels of cost v timeline, so I was able to choose something that met my needs and budget. I was then impressed with the level of service and communication throughout the process. I will not hesitate to recommend you should I come across anyone needing similar help in recovering data. Thank you.

Excellent Service - PAYAM successfully recovered 11 years of photos from my failed HD where others had failed. Their service was professional and personable and worth every penny.
Reading the other reviews for PAYAM, I wasn't surprised at the string of praises and 5 star ratings...
Caryn C.
Lost photos of a holiday broke my daughter's heart. I formatted the picture card thinking the photos were on her computer. I was given Payam's number and Kevin retrieved the photos. Kevin was so professional and caring. Thank you so much.
Johann Kelaart
Our hard drive went to sleep one day and low and behold we had no back-up. I took the drive to a local IT shop who advised the hard drive was corrupted and he did not have the technology to recover. Without hesitation he said he was confident Mark from Payam was required. Payam were so professional in their clear communication, likelihood of success and keeping me informed all the way. It took a solid 3 weeks but in the end all data was recovered. We are so grateful for this professional service and the care taken to recover all data from a seemingly dead drive. I am not a technical person, but I know it was a difficult job, but well worth the wait. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark at Payam, but the first recommendation is - BACK UP YOUR DATA!!!
Amanda Scott
Couldn't have asked for a better service, my hard drive couldn't be read by the computer technician, he then recommended Payam. I posted in the hard drive and received a phone call to confirm they had received it, then after only a few hours I received the call to say they could recover the data and gave me a free quote, I opted for the economy service, due to moving house, and was over the moon to hear after a few days that it was successful, they then arranged for the external hard drive and my old hard drive to sent back to me by courier. I would highly recommend Payam to anyone the service was fast, professional and I was keep up to date on progress throughout. Thanks for everything. Amanda
Lydia von Rönge

Kult Heaton
I was working onsite and a buckets of seawater was dumping on the deck above flooding my laptop, which had a lot of information necessary for my work. Payam Data Recovery, inspected the laptop and gave me a same day quote. All data was recovered. Very happy with the service though I hopefully won’t require their services again.
Talitha Maher
I am so happy with everything you guys did. I was absolutely devastated when i thought all of the photos of my kids and all of my study docs were gone. You guys were so understanding and compassionate and it was such a relief to know you would do everything you could to save my data.
I was extremely relieved to have over 99% of my data recovered. I would recommend you to anybody and will use you again if needed (fingers crossed I don’t though). Thank you so much!
Debra Schroeder
Hi, I went to access some photos from my Samsung S5 and they had disappeared. There were so many of my grandchildren and I was devastated. I did some research and found Payam, and as they were in Adelaide decided to give them a go, didn't have anything to lose and all to gain. Fabulous, Wes was great, all photos recovered and I am so very happy. Will, and have already recommended you guys to anyone who will listen
