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.

When my HDD failed I was in shock thinking “that didn’t just happen, did it?” Everything I thought was worth keeping for the past 10 years was on that Drive. The guys at the local PC store couldn’t even read the drive, saying “it has some big problems” & suggested I give the guys at PAYAM a call & send them my HDD. Glad I did! I now have all my data back without losing anything. Payams communication & personalised service was excellent. If you have any HDD problems these are definitely the guys to call!

Payam really delivered exceptional service in what was a very critical situation for me. A lifetime of photos were gone as were all my accounting records. They retrieved all my data in a timely manner with professionalism. Highly recommend! A++++!!

Once the service was completed the follow up has been great and the help in getting to understand what was recovered and what was just system files was very helpful in managing the drive.

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.
I recently lost around 850Gb of data on my external hard drive through a crash/corruption, data which consisted of both business and personal data compiled over a period of ten years. I was absolutely devastated when I thought I'd lost it all, because most of it was either irreplaceable or replaceable only through thousands of hours work sourcing it from a wide range of external and internal areas
My computer IT guy in Sydney (A Little Help Computing Services) recommended Payam Data Recovery and whilst one of our businesses is based in Sydney, I live in Melbourne, which is where the disaster occurred. I was very pleasantly surprised when he advised that Payam also had an office in Melbourne, where I met Craig Nevans
Craig was great to deal with, very personable, friendly and efficient, and I am ecstatic that Payam have been able to recover the majority of my data. I have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending their services!

My WD portable hard disk died off suddenly with no hope to restore. Got referral from a friend for this company and retrieved the important data at ease. Expect the fee would be mega high – eventually fixed at a fee that is acceptable. High recommended company if you got the same problem.
John Cassey
We are an Australian charity involved in overseas aid. All our media (video, images) for the past 6 years had been moved to an external hard drive - which then failed. Local experts referred us to Payam after being unable to recover data. Lachlan made the process of sending the disc easy and was at all times attentive, clear and professional about options. The eventual cost was beyond our means. Knowing we were a charity, Payam offered to recover the data at a substantially reduced cost and put it onto a complimentary hard drive. You guys are great!!!!!! Thank you
Rod Smith
I was happy to have my files retrieved. From the outset it was made clear that no guarantee of a successful outcome could be provided. I realised that I may have been wasting money committing to the attempt. Subsequently the data that was able to be retrieved was more than compensation for that which couldn’t. During the process I was kept adequately informed.
Lloyd Doddridge
I was rapt with your service and the results. The recovered material is essential to my son’s university course and we were most appreciative both of the results and the reasonable cost of the service provided.
Maggie Sharp
The relief of hearing the news that most of my data had been recovered was huge! To potentially have lost the first three years worth of photographs of my children's life was heartbreaking but thank god, these guys managed to save it and I'm so grateful! Super professional and lovely customer service. I felt I was in good hands and I really appreciated the regular updates on how the work was progressing. Warmly recommend Payam!
Tia Bates
A huge thank you to Paolo for recovering my severely water damaged iPhone! also the team at Payam was very professional, kind and awesome... so refreshing! After being told by two other technicians that there was no hope... Payam found a way!!! Paolo you must be acknowledge for your tenacious will to find a solution! I now have precious photos of my children and most recently of my newborn, which I thought I had lost forever... Words cannot explain my gratitude and will be forever grateful!! Thank you so much! with warmth
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.”

I am an avid photographer and a mum of 3 little cuties and I mistakenly stored all my photos including our family and baby pics from 2005 till 2010 on a single external hard drive....so you can imagine my despair when I turned it on one day only to hear a loud clicking, clunking sound with an error message on my computer saying there was no readable files! I was desperate and did as much research as I could to find a company that could help me. I knew I only had one shot and recovering anything from the damaged drive, so after much phoning and emailing around I came to the decision that Payam was the only place that had a very high success rate and I felt assured that they could help my situation. Well my intuition served me well because they had success, they were able to save all my files and I couldn't be happier!! Throughout the whole process we were updated on their progress and our emails were always responded to very quickly. They are extremely professional and my experience with this company has been outstanding! I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone that finds themselves in a situation like mine! THANK YOU PAYAM DATA RECOVERY!!!!!
Trudi Tomlinson
Very happy with service.
Janine Sabeh
The PAYAM Data recovery men are my IT hero's! l was given a quote within 24 hours and they even took the time to explain to me all my options. After being turned down by 3 other people Paolo Bileci saved the day and did so at a very affordable price! It just goes to show that not only are these men friendly and professional they are incredibly knowledgeable.
Don't waste your time/effort/money on anyone else PAYAM really are the best in the business!
Doug Smith
Excellent work achieved without delay. I thank you.

During May 2009 I was attempting to complete my HSC year at school. Being a student who uses a laptop all my work files for the previous 4 years, including the entirety of my Preliminary HSC and what I had so far done of the HSC, were stored on my computer. Hence you could imagine my horror when I attempted to turn on my Laptop only to find it wasn’t possible to access any of my notes. After a month of differing computer technicians attempting to recover the files I was eventually directed to Payam. Within 24 hours I got the phone call saying they had isolated the problem and offered with a quote to move forward, due to the important nature of my files I immediately moved forward and despite not asking for the express service my files were recovered within the week. On top of this Payam then proceeded to sell me and exceptionally cheap and high quality Seagate external hard drive. This has since ensured that not only are all my notes accessible to me but they are also backed up to avoid this problem happening again. - Jack Thorburn"

Great service. Recovered entire job lost on a failed CF card with fast turnaround. Would happily recommend Payam Data Recovery services
Jayne McCabe
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. Thank you Payam for recovering my memories!
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
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!
Daniel Calabro
I recently lost access to my external hard drive - which cleverly had never been backed up. A lot of data was lost including hundreds of compositions I'd written over the years. My brother recommended PAYAM and I can see why. Fast, free quote, and after accepting the job was completed within a couple of days. The data was couriered back to me on a very well priced new hard drive. I highly recommend these guys, and appreciate the fast service and great communication
John Hipwell
Best service yet for retrieving data removed in error. Great advice, professionalism and care. Thanks heaps Craig.
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.
Blair Harkness
Very happy with the service and result I received from the Auckland office of Payam. Very pleasant staff too. Fairly expensive, but a lot of time was involved, and I bought a new drive at a good price.
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.
Joel Ricci
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!!
Sandra Chung
I had a Seagate drive that was a replacement for a different Seagate drive that failed under warranty, also fail after less than a year. I immediately unplugged it, and did some websearching and found PAYAM Data Recovery. I gave them a call, brought my drive down. Turned out the heads had crashed, and it was sent to "The Clean Room" . As the data on it wasn't desperately needed, but I did want it recovered, I took the slow option. Upon examination, it was the heads, but the platters were undamaged. PAYAM reconstructed the drive and was able to recover ALL the data and put it on a brand new drive.
When I had a bit of confusion about payment/return method, it was explained, I paid and the drive was back to me 4 days after
I have a few static glitches on very few of the media files, but they work. Now, I know not all data recovery jobs have this great of an outcome, but considering what the cost of the loss of data would have been, in time and money to rebuild, it was well worth the cost.
As for "slow" method, my drive was fixed in under a month and returned. Definitely recommend PAYAM.
Ade Newie
Professional+++, good at what they do, fast efficient, delivery. Lost 10 years of family photos, everyone else said the data was unrecoverable. Highly recommended.
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.
Lindor Jonuzi
Fantastic! Clearly explained the steps and options and then over delivered. Don't waste your time (and money) with anyone else.
Steve Jones
I highly recommend this business, the people were down to earth and straightforward with me, after being quoted 2k to recover my things on my laptop and being charged $90 to hear this from Geeks2u, Payam were heaven sent! They have me a realistic price and timeframe, I could not have been happier! I would not at all hesitate recommending them to anyone, at least you know what they say to you is what they mean without taking you for a ride. Thank you so much!!
Scott McGuirk
I bent a USB stick with a lot of precious data on it. I contacted Payam and they explained very clearly their service, the process and the probability of retrieving the data. They indicated it would take 5 days to complete but I picked it up after 3 days. Great service. Their communication via email and SMS was timely and informative and the result was perfect. A+ for customer service
David Fin
Paolo was very helpful in getting ALL of my data back. A great relief. Although I had a backup I was unsure how up to date it was, so getting everything was an unexpected bonus. I was pleased that my local computer specialist admitted that he was unable to fix the problem and recommended PAYAM. It was good to be kept informed of progress. An added bonus was their service for completely destroying the 'dead' hard disk free of charge, if I required. I would have no hesitation in using them again or recommending them to others.
Paula Monteith
Great experience with Payam Data recovery! My hard drive packed up 4 years ago, and the team at Payam fixed it!! Bloody amazing. They were professional, efficient and surprisingly affordable. Highly recommend these blokes. They even got payment plan for the poor folk like myself.
Sam Heylen
One happy customer! My wife's iPhone suddenly crashed and having not been backed up in over a year we thought we had lost all of her photos, videos etc including baby photos of our 3rd child. Apple said there was nothing we could do except try a data recovery place. Payam were fantastic from whoa to go. They recovered all the data and even provided an iTunes backup of the phone. Couldn't recommend them more highly. Thanks guys
Piotr Sawi
Fantastic, professional and efficient service. I got a quote for unreadable disk data recovery the next day after delivering disk to the North Sydney Office. The disk belonged to one of my clients which came out of G5 mac and contained all the billing information of my client including outstanding accounts for over $30000 so they didn't know who to chaise for payments. Sure you can find cheaper services in Sydney or post your hdd overseas but would/could you risk it? In my case the answer was NO so I gave it to the best data recovery people I knew - PAYAM. I was not mistaken. The disk clone would not boot in a Mac due to damage caused by hard drive failing for a period of time and trashing system files but all the accounting data I needed was recovered 100%. Client was very happy and I was very happy too. Don't risk it. Leave it with Payam.
Lydia von Rönge
The service was excellent. The team at Payam Data Recovery was happy to work around my needs and requests to make it happen.
Brad Corey
My hard drive suddenly stopped working. Visited several recovery companies and finally found Payam. Payam did a great job and recovered all my data. They also gave me a very reasonable price. Thank Payam!
Joe Saxton
Was very surprised they were able to recover all my photos and files from a ocean-water damaged Galaxy Note. Very happy indeed
Michael Bachelder
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.
Hkang
Coming back home from an overseas conference trip, the last thing I needed was to be greeted by a non-starting desktop. I was desperate to recover my data, especially my 'just-completed' tax return information! PAYAM was recommended by my local IT repair shop as well as by the work IT personnel. It was worth every penny! Service was excellent - fast (within a week), professional and complete (all data was recovered). I highly recommend PAYAM to anyone whose data may have been deemed 'unrecoverable' by other IT service providers.
Shelly L.
A simple storage device, which had worked faultlessly for a few years, decided soon after our recent office move that it was not going to boot up again. Having allowed our backup regime to fall behind by a few months, this meant a significant amount of important business data was inaccessible. Tech support from unitas manufacturer (when finally available) gave us great confidence the unit could be re-started in various ways but no confidence the data on the drive would survive the exercise. Their recommendation was Payam. of course payam was able to quickly and cost-effectively retrieve all of the data on the disk. However it was the way Craig conducted himself, without a hint of smugness or judgement, that was most impressive. The team at Payam are clearly very knowledgeable and highly skilled in this field, but at no stage were we made to feel ignorant or deficient. The whole process was carefully described, then quoted, and communication all through the exercise was timely and professional. We would have no hesitation in recommending payam, they're far better at their job than we are at backing up.

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.

Ok, so get this! I was asked to take the photos of my sister in law's wedding. I went to Port Douglas and got some beauties. I had taken special precautions by purchasing a brand new memory card of 16 gb so that nothing would go wrong. I get home with my 2000, count them 2000, photos and as I'm transferring them from the camera to the computer.... it seizes up and I get the rainbow wheel horror child. When it was all over..... GONE!!!! AAAAHHHHH. I googled "HELP lost photos need to retrieve" or something like that, and got reviews of this company. They were close, I went straight over there. I really liked the way they said straight up, $250 and if we don't get 'em it's no cost. Cool bananas. Do it baby. Yep. Got 'em!!! Oh Yeah! Heaven. I just wished I'd seen the special $50 voucher they have on this site and it would've just been two hunda. We're talking wedding photos here. RELATIVES wedding photos. IN LAWS wedding photos. Lordy Lordy. This could've been like, a major feud fest. I would even say I feel a certain love towards this company. Yes. A kind of love. You know what I'm saying?

My RAID-5 Server crashed, 2 drives had were clicking. I sent this to 3 other data recovery companies (1 in North Sydney, 1 in Melbourne and the last was a global firm in QLD). None of them could recover the data, after 3 months i had lost all hope. I was heard an Ad for Payam Data Recovery on Radio. Their ad said 'nothing is impossible!'. After 2 days, they recovered all of my data. I could not believe it. It cost me only $800 (the other companies quoted $2,500-$7,000 which i actually did approved all 3 quotes as i was desperate but none of them could fix the problem! I got all my MYOB accounting files, outlook pst email files and family photos back. Next time i'll go to Payam 1st! Cheaper and better than the other companies that were just full of crap! Very friendly service, good customer service is hard to find - and their service was flawless! I am very happy, they were better, faster and cheaper than other companies. Well done. I'll be your walking 'word of mouth' billboard for the rest of my life. Thank you for saving my business!
Conrad Smith
Payam Data Recovery provides a great service when important data has been lost. I've used them a number of times while repairing PCs and servers for people. On each occasion Payam have recovered the data of damaged hard drives. If needed, they have worked through the night and returned data quickly. While it is not a service that you 'want' to use, if you 'need' data recovery, then Payam will help.
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.
Jen H
Thanks Payam you saved all my photos and music from the last 16 years. So grateful for your service as I was very upset at the thought of losing these memories. Always backup your backup
