About a year ago my younger sister passed away, and a lot of pictures of us were on a hard drive I accidentally put on wrong power supply and burn the PCB. Never really went into recovery, because why should I, is not that it was critical for me. After I lost her, I wanted to recover the images of us as young kids. The website was very clear, and their reviews substantial in my choosing to take my drive here. The team was very friendly and offered great advice. The picture I recovered are worth so much more than I payed. Thank you!

I stored all my photos on a 500gb external hard drive (a normal pc hard drive in an external casing). At least 2-3 years worth of personal, travel, and assignment photos. When my hard drive broke down, I thought I had lost all those precious memories and assignment work. It was powering up but just made a spinning sound and wouldn't get recognised by my computer. I quickly jumped online and googled 'hard drive data recovery' and called 2 other companies before PAYAM. The other companies weren't too helpful. Then I spoke with Craig Nevans from PAYAM over the phone. Craig was very helpful and asked me a few questions about what the hard drive was doing when I kept trying to turn it on. Craig then gave me a solution to try before bringing my hard drive in - to connect it directly to the pc as the external power supply in the casing might be faulty. He was spot on with the faulty power supply in the casing. My computer even recognised that the drive was there but the data was not readable. So I called Craig again and he suggested I bring it in for testing. When I arrived at PAYAM, the service from Craig was fantastic. He gave me a breakdown of the whole process, prices and estimate of the time it would take. I also had to be on a plane back to London in a few days. During and after the testing of my hard drive, Craig kept me up to date constantly via email and phone over the next couple of days. He was able to recover all my photos and files that were on my hard drive, all before I had to go overseas. Excellent and professional service from Craig. Thanks heaps Craig! I highly recommend PAYAM Data recovery!!

I was referred to PAYAM Data Recovery by my IT contact and I admit to being delighted with the service and the turnaround time that I experienced with PAYAM. We were quite frantic when we lost our data and our back-up. We have had this occur once before and with a less than satisfactory outcome provided by the previous data recovery company, I was very anxious. I spoke with Payam himself initially and then continued through the data recovery process with the professional assistance of Paolo Bileci.

Paolo was terrific. He kept me informed, he reassured me with his expert knowledge of what needed to be done. Paolo worked to my budget and gave constant, excellent customer service and feedback, throughout the experience. I collected 100% of our data and walked away with the absolute confidence that I would use PAYAM Data Recovery again if the need arose again. I can confidently recommend their services to anyone in need of data recovery experts! Thanks Paolo for turning my anxiety into a smile at an affordable price

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!!

Thanks Craig Nevans at PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd. I recently thought I had lost a lot of memories (photos) when the external hard drive I was using crashed. I thought I had backed up the photos but when I looked to find the backups I realised that they were not there. I was completely devastated, I thought I had lost the photos of grandchildren, friends, holidays. Hundreds of memories and photos that could not be replaced. I searched the web and found PAYAM in Melbourne. With my hard drive in hand, my husband, daughter and I drove to Melbourne. There at PAYAM we were greeted by the most wonderful person Craig Nevans, the customer service manager. Straight away Craig set our minds at ease, he was sympathetic,very supportive and completely understood our plight. Craig was wonderful to deal with. He didn't promise the world or that he could recover the data, however we went back home feeling very positive. As promised Craig emailed a few days later, they could recover the data at a very affordable price. A second email followed in a few days to advise they had recovered the data and they would, if we liked, ship the recovered data back to us on a well priced new hard drive, thus avoiding another trip to Melbourne. We were ecstatic to receive this email. I have no hesitation in recommending PAYAM to anyone looking for data recovery. They are the best in their field and wonderful people. If your hard drive crashes, don't panic contact PAYAM and talk to Craig and the team. Thanks again Craig

When my hard drive died I thought I had lost everything but Payam Data Recovery, recovered & saved my stuff very grateful

I will never be able to thank PAYAM enough for the great job they did in recovering some very precious photos I had accidently deleted. They were very professional, quick and pleasant and kind enough to help me download their disc to my computer when I returned home. These Magic Men are also my heros - I just didn't believe a recovery could be done. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, boys.

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.

I'd recently crashed my MacBook Pro and thought i had lost all data in my computer. I brought it over to Apple Store and Mac Centric, both of whom could not help me and suggested that I may not be able to retrieve my data anymore. The latter of whom however, suggested that I would need to go to a an experienced data recovery team and try my luck there. I then recalled my sister (having lost all her photos from an overseas SD card that she bought during her Europe trip) bringing her SD card to PAYAM, after many trial and errors through different data recovery team companies in Sydney. They eventually were the only ones able to retrieve her precious photos again. So i decided to take my computer to PAYAM, and within a day I received a more than reasonable quote which i was not obliged to pay a cent of unless i was 100 percent happy with their work. Not only are they an expert at data retrieval, but their customer service is excellent, which is certainly helpful when you are already distressed. PAYAM are an informative, efficient & reliable company, and i recommend them to anyone who needs their computer back on track again. Thank you so much for your help and fantastic customer care.

Craig Nevans from PAYAM data recovery I own a recording studio and have had success with PAYAM,i recommend any commercial recording studios, musicians with home studios, Multimedia business etc to use the service PAYAM data recovery in the result of a system failure. Thankyou Craig for restoring my files and preventing my business from incurring a great loss. Regards Mark Belcastro

A while back I had a PC which had a power supply failure that took out the motherboard, all adapters and all three hard drives. Payam took a look at the drives and indicated that with board-level repairs there was a good chance that all the data would be recovered and this is exactly what happened.

The data on the drives was useful but I didn't need it urgently so I took the economy service option.

Payam kept in touch regularly and all data was returned on a drive I supplied.

Very pleased with the service.

The cost of the service i s not trivial so I guess you have to weigh up the cost of the work with the value of the data and the likelihood of recovery but in my case the recovered data was worth much more to me than the cost of recovering it so I'm very happy.

Allen S.

The staff was very professional and knowledgeable. I found their reviews on google and they were very positive. They were able to recover and save my hard drive with the files on it. Thank you! Thank you!

Chris

Had a great experience dealing with Craig from Payam data recovery. They kept me up to date with the whole process and were very quick with there turn around. They were able to recover all my data.

Jennifer Baxa

Wow! You saved 10 years of my kids photos from birth to school. I was devastated. After calling Western Digital support they told me to give you a call. I'm glad I did. Awesome service.

John Hipwell

Best service yet for retrieving data removed in error. Great advice, professionalism and care. Thanks heaps Craig.

Beth Ammerman

I too was bitten by the "why didn't I backup my data!" regret. I thought 14 years of photos, music and business files were simply dead and gone until I discovered Payam. Great service, 100% of everything restored. It does cost, but worth it! Thanks

Grant Molik

The work you did was amazing and I can’t thank you enough, If it wasn’t for you guys I wouldn’t have valuable photos. Appreciate it a lot.

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.

Warren West

I recently had a failure of my hard drive containing about two year's data from my business. Thanks to Payam Data Recovery the data was recovered quickly and completely to minimise the disruption. I can only say that I would recommend Payam to anyone with a similar problem because of the efficient and friendly service they provided.
