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!!

We thought we'd never see our photos again. We don't regret paying the money. We should recommend Payam to others and we are pleased that the job was done very quickly too.
Su Johnson
Very happy with Payam’s services. Tried the local IT shop, useless! Next time will go straight to Payam.
Leon Silver
I was very happy with your work. You were fast, efficient and good value. I will certainly use you next time.
Eric Chen
I am happy with the overall service and definitely will use again and recommend to people who need the service.
Amy Hobson
We had a USB that died most unmercifully upon us. I contacted Craig at the Melbourne office who helped us get everything back. Thanks Craig for the good, honest service. Highly recommended!

My hard drive with all my important personal photos and videos just didn't boot up one day when I plugged it in, so I took it to a small computer shop a friend said did data recovery quite cheap, I thought if they had no luck I'd go to one of the bigger places. BAD IDEA! The first place couldn't recover anything and said most likely all my data was lost and as a last resort I could try Payam Data Recovery as they were the best. When I took it to Payam and saw Paolo, it turned out the first place I'd tried had actually damaged my drive further! I was devastated, expecting there was no chance of recovery. Within 10 days Paolo rang me back to let me know they had recovered everything! AMAZING! I was thrilled. I doubt many other places could've have done the job they did, they are the professionals, you can trust that they will do the best job possible. Paolo was great to deal with and I can't thank you all enough!! It's very obvious to me now to always go to the best place first and not the cheaper option. It's just not worth it. If your data is important to you - go to these guys!

My USB flash drive broke when my laptop fell off my bed with it connected. They were able to repair it and copy my documents to a new USB flash drive on the same when I asked for their urgent service. They were the only company I could find who could do this on the same day, the others I called said it would take at least 5 days. I even spoke with the boss Payam on the phone before bringing my flash drive in, he made everything sound like it would be OK when I was majorly stressed out when it first happened

We were very happy with the service of taking a hard drive array set and restore all of the data for our client.

PAYAM has again recovered my files and work history within the time frame that i needed them back. I would recommend this service to anyone who thinks that their files are lost forever. Payam's knowledge and professional service make a distressing occurrence a walk in the park. Cheers Payam.
Bennie Gordon
When my Intel SSD stopped working after it went to sleep one day, I googled data recovery and Payam were the first to get back to me. They recovered everything for $600. Worth every cent. Easy to deal with.
Nikki Braybrook
I was really happy with your service, you not only retrieved all the lost data, you made the whole process really easy and in super quick time! I would not hesitate to recommend you.
Nick Ni
Had a WD My Book Live that stopped working after 3 years. Had about 700GB of data on it. Payam informed me initially that the disk was full of bad sectors and they proceeded to recover all the files. Great job.

I’m very happy with the data recovery work done. Overall, it was a great service provided and I will definitely recommend it to others.
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!
Ceasar L.
The service I received from Payam Data Recovery was excellent. We received a quote via email within 24 hours and the repair work was quick and they managed to get all files back. Very impressed!
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!
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.
Adina Sellin
Amazeballs! I dropped my portable drive off my bed and I called Seagate tech support desperate for a way to fix it. They told me to call Payam Data Recovery, the only company in New Zealand they authorized and recommended. I'm glad I called. They were super helpful and it worked out a lot cheaper thank I expected.
Vangie Taylor
They are very honest and responsive, and the cost was very fair. I'm glad that I took my very important hard drive to them.
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.
Jason Whitehead
Very prompt professional and courteous service. Highly recommend!
Stanley Armstrong
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++++!!
Harry Montgomery
I would like to thanks the team at Payam Data Recovery for the help they given us. My phone was water damaged and had gone blank. The photos of my daughter’s birth were on it. Samsung said they could not help me and I got the same response from any other company I engaged. That phone has been in my car for over a year now just in case I could find someone. I was told about PDR and within a week they have extracted. the photos and they are being delivered. I can't thank you enough. Happy wife, happy life! I will recommend you anytime I can
Janise Au
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.
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.
Ian and Jan Clarke
Many thanks for your recovery work on our seized hard drive. The main point we would thank you for is that even though you had some problems finding a donor drive you kept us in the loop the whole time.
We were so happy to receive our data on the external hard drive as we had many memories of our Grand children growing up. Again, many thanks for your professional service.
Brad Flowers
Excellent fast and friendly help – life saving

I chose Payam Data Recovery based on a recommendation from a friend in the IT industry…I gotta say they were fantastic to deal with! I had an external HD fail at the most inconvenient time, as I had shifted the entire contents of my PC to it whilst I was reformatting. I had family photos, documents and everything, I thought it was all lost. I sent my HD to Payam, with an expectation of a 2 week wait, and the possibility of no result. I was wrong! About 2 days later, I got a message telling me they were about to start on my job…later that day I got a phone call telling me it was finished and all successful ….and back in my hand the next day. Hopefully…I will never have to use them again…but if I do, I’d go nowhere else.
Ron Shaw
Very happy with what you were able to do. The Co-operation was exemplary, prompt and courteous. Thank you very much.
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.
Brenden
Sent them my thumb drive and got it back with all data recovered within a week. Keith was brilliant and took the time to go through what was recovered prior to me paying.
I had actually sent my thumb drive to Technetics Data Recovery a month earlier. Got some crap story about it being difficult to recover and wanted to charge me in excess of $1500 to recover 10 Power Points.
Payam were quicker, more engaged and a 1/4 of the price.
Jamie Dela Rosa
I was very satisfied with the job that you guys did. It was quick, easy, helpful and accommodating. As a full-time student, I greatly appreciated the plan of payment I was put on that was offered to All my files were recovered from my drive and I can’t really be any happier. Thank you.

When you first start researching data recovery it can be pretty scary. My external hard drive with 5 years worth of the whole family's photos and backups couldn't be read. I found Payam with a simple Google and liked both the location and testimonials. I sent some screen shots in and then gave Craig a call. Perfectly explained, no data - no charge, could give an exact quote on inspection. I took it in, gave the go-ahead and a few days later (and that was the economy service) I had an email with a list of the files recovered. I now have all of my files for about an 8th of the price of printing all the photos. The service reminded me of how great service should be. Many Thanks....
Maarten Tentij
Professional service and they recovered my data efficiently. I will now always backup every week. My wife recommended Payam because she also had good things to say about them. I would definitely use them again - but I hope I will not have to
Craig Gill
Payam did what I needed in good time and with good communication. Thank you.
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.
Jia
The service is so professional. Also, they gave me back earlier than they promised. All data comes back, which saves my day
Matthew Perovic
Great service and fast. High success rate on recoveries!

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.

I was told: “External hard drive devices can easily get corrupted – especially, if the hard drive is not ejected correctly.”– but, in error, I did this and sure enough my external drive device “DIED”!!! I went to Apple Store where I purchased the device.
They said: “Sorry, bad luck; the data is corrupted; nothing can be done about it.” I was desperate. I investigated Sydney Seagate Service Centres and I tracked down Payam Data Recovery at North Sydney. I took my device there and within a couple of weeks and after paying a very reasonable cost, all my data had been recovered. Wow!! They achieved the impossible and at every step of the way, they were enormously understanding of my distress & enormously helpful in getting back to being fully operational. Thank You to all at Payam!
Paul Lock
Payam recovered lost information without any fuss, the staff were efficient and professional and kept me informed as to total cost and progress. I would recommend Payam to as the data recover solution to any of my friends and colleagues.
I had a 1TB HDD with Music and 10 years worth of photo's...the loss would have been devastating. I took the HDD to PAYAM and a day later all my data was recovered. Great service and eager to please. *** Thank You ***
Ruthy Walsh
My HDD had crashed. I left the HDD in Payams hands expecting the worst but was pleasantly surprised when told they were able to recover all the data very quickly which included a lot of photos and Company information. Very friendly and professional staff.
Amylee Goodman
Couldn't recommend highly enough amazing results always informing you on the process and just amazing with customer service
Les M
If you need help to recover files or ascertain what's wrong , here is where you go , helpful , honest , i cannot say enough , these guys can help with your dumb questions too , i had mine answered! Reasonable cost too , i had to see them a second time for a similar problem with a CF card , it was looked at on the spot and we figured out that my card reader was the problem and advice was given , no charge . The guys could run a help desk if they were not too busy , they are THE experts !!! Do not go anywhere else !!!
Devan Massey
Thanks to Payam I've been able to recover photos I haven't seen for years! They were on an old laptop hard-drive and I didn't expect to set anything, but they managed to get it all. Service was also much quicker than expected.
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
Stuart Morley
Thank you for the excellent work. You had saved my all data from being lost.
