Excellent fast and friendly help – life saving

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!

I had lost my data after asking in Canada and Dubai none could do the job when I found Payam they did an excellent job for me I recovered more or less everything. I can't thank them any less as I had thought I won't ever be able to recover anything back. I had basically all the pics and videos if my son so I'm very happy to have recovered quite a bit thank you Payam they have lovely staff and lovely support they keep u posted at every stage what they are doing till the last moment which is very good thank you once again a very happy satisfied customer of yours I would definitely recommend you to many others!
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!

I like the way they stand by their promises they have given me. The costs have been very reasonable. I completely recommend this company to anyone who needs data restoration.
Bernard Jones
These guys know what their doing. Was just going through life and then was faced with my other half loosing over five years worth of photography plus data, and then have the back up crash on the same night. Payam, Lachlan and the rest of the team persisted, ran multiple recoveries, providing updates on its progress and then retrieving 905 of the drive. Great achievement and great service
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.

My hard disk crashed and I lost everything. I took it to my local computer business that I deal with and they were unable to retrieve any of the disc contents. I had not backed up the disc for the past 8 months or more and had all of my work files as well as family photos and important emails that were lost. I sent the disc to PAYAM and they were able to retrieve all of the contents completely and at an extremely reasonable price. I had trouble retrieving one of the hidden files as I have limited knowledge in that area. I rang Kevin at PAYAM and he walked me through the steps that enabled me to access the file and retrieve the information. I found their service, advice and help to be excellent and would highly recommend them.

Thank you for the excellent work. I can't thank you guys enough for recovering all my irreplaceable data. Appreciate your prompt reply and communication on every step of the way. Discounts that was offered were immensely helpful financially.
Will definitely recommend you guys if anyone I know needs data recovery.

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!
Matt Colcombe
Excellent service with a professional completion of the work. I was very grateful to have my data successfully recovered. I was kept up to date with emails and the overall communication was very good and helped me feel confident in their service. Thanks again!

I had 8 corrupted Vmdk files for our company Vmware server that crashed. Vmware tech support and another data recovery company could not help us. Payam data recovery extracted the contents of the files in 1 day using their urgent service. It was worth it - 200 staff are back to work now! Thank you so much, you saved my bacon!

I used to work in IT. I'm the guy people (still) come to when they lose their data. I recently did a wedding on a professional SLR, recorded to a compact flash card (very reliable). Somehow, I managed to corrupt my FAT32 partition and corrupt the entire card. I only know that because PAYAM told me. I thought I had busted the hardware - the electronic internals. PAYAM are an honest company, no doubt about it. They charged very, very reasonably considering my circumstances, and they got onto the job faster than they had to. My data was successfully recovered, and my client did not even need to know I had an issue. My reputation is safe because of this company. Rock on.

Payam is a magician! My network (along with my attached hard drive) got fried in a storm whilst I was away on holidays. I consulted friends that worked in IT and even paid a computer store check my hard drive out and they told me that I'd have to pay them again for a quote to have it looked at by a forensic mob. I did my own investigative work and found Payam through Google. I read all the other reviews, checked out the website and compared it to others I had found. I even mystery shopped several companies by calling over the phone and asking Qs about their services and costs to recover the data. I chose to use Payam and I agree with the professionalism and response times reported in the previous reviews. In the end I got my data and photos copied onto a new hard drive and it cost much less than what some other companies were quoting (try $1K + interstate registered postage!). I can't thank Payam and his team enough and thoroughly recommend them for data recovery services (although I hope not to have to go through the experience again!). Extremely happy 🙂
Keith Adams
Great staff and very helpful. They have recovered data for me a number of times.
Matthew Perovic
Great service and fast. High success rate on recoveries!
Kane Mcervale
My company was recently unfortunate enough to have one of our hard disks fail. Unfortunately, this caused our back up drive to corrupt also, and the result was a loss of months of work. Mark and the team at PAYAM successfully retrieved ALL of our precious data, and provided top-notch service along the way. I was thrilled (and relieved) with the result. Thanks for your patience and attention to detail guys
Su Johnson
Very happy with Payam’s services. Tried the local IT shop, useless! Next time will go straight to Payam.
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.
Suzanne Janine
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 am very pleased with the service and completed so quickly.I have already mentioned your service to friends.

Dear Wes, During our latest visit to Vietnam and Cambodia I made the fatal mistake of carrying out a request from my Tablet to format my SD card I mistakenly thought that did not affect my CF card. Unfortunately it did and I lost at least 1 day of photographs taken in Saigon. I asked various people if they could be retrieved only to be told by most people it could not be done. However a salesperson at Harvey Norman, Yes there, told me not all was lost as long as I had not done anything with the card but they could not do it nor would he suggest anyone. After some research I found Payam on a google search and with an office in Adelaide I thought why not give it a try. I spoke with Wes and although he would at the time not give me a guarantee he would look at it and let me know what he found. He did so early next day, including a print to show me. I gave him the go ahead and within days I had all my photos back, both Raw and JPG files. The thing that most impressed me was the fact that if I was not 100% happy with the result Payam would not charge me. How good is that!
Thank you Wes Hliniak, Thank you Payam, you both saved me a trip back to Saigon. Come to think of it?
Kind Regards

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.
Aaron D
Very professional outfit. Kept me informed, were prompt in getting back to me and it seems like they enjoy what they do. very satisfied with their service and work.
I will definitely recommend them to anyone that needs their data recovered from dead or defective disks.
David Kinder
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.

You are very considerate and charged a reasonable amount for me since i am a student. I really appreciate that! Regarding work, it was good and got done in a reasonable time. Thank you, once again.
Neil Robertson
Very happy with the service and end result.
Tee Harris
Great service. I got all the data recovered within days and the cost was acceptable. It is good that the NAS manufacturer LaCie knows their service and it is on their recommended list. It's a good wake up call I need to do dual backups. 🙂

I was very happy with the service received.

Thank you for your excellent work, after 3 attempts of trying to recover my photos from my iPhone which I had dropped in the toilet and just stopped working, Payam were able to recover everything from my very dead iPhone!!! Excellent customer service!!! Thank you so much!!!!
After a major hard drive crash, windows wouldn't recognise the drive at all. Of course I was between making back ups at the time. Payam managed to recover all of the data on the drive, well over 300GB worth! I haven't yet found a corrupted file that they recovered. Price was very reasonable, speed was also good. Payam also kept me up to date and shipped the old drive and the recovered data to me via overnight courier. Couldn't be happier, I hope I dont need to use data recovery again, but if I do I would not hesitate to use Payam again.

My external hard drive with all my important personal data, photos and videos just didn't boot up one day when I plugged it in it was working the day before and suddenly stopped working the next. I then took it to my local computer shop in Mandurah who tried to recover the information for me and said that it was most likely that all my data was lost and suggested I try Payam Data Recovery Services in Perth as they were the best in the business but they also did warn me that their services were not cheap. PAYAM in Perth attempted to recover my information however, it had to be sent on to the Sydney Recovery Centre. I can't remember how long the service actually took but I was so happy in receiving the phone call saying that they had managed to recover everything! FANTASTIC! I was so very grateful. I doubt any other place could have done the job they did, and you certainly can trust that they will do the best job possible. This however was back in January this year. You would think that this could not happen TWICE in one year and to the same person. However, in May this year, it happened again. This time the newly recovered hard-drive got zapped by lightning all I know was that the hard drive got really hot and then nothing. I went through the same process as before, going firstly to the Perth office who in turn sent it onto Sydney .. And what magicians they are at the Sydney Recovery Centre. They managed to recover the information for me once again. I can't thank you all enough!! It's very obvious to me now to always go to the best place first. It's worth it. If your data is important to you pay for the service DEFINITELY GO TO PAYAM DATA RECOVERY SERVICES!!!!

Very professional, helpful and effective. I would highly recommend their data retrieval service. They recovered all my data and provided very useful advice. A number of sources recommended Payam as the best in the business and now I know why.
James Bomalick
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!

Ronnie Kinaadman
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!!
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!

We had a recent hard drive crash on a Linux Server. The data contained images from a weather station located in a remote part of Papua New Guinea for the past 18 months. Kevin and his team were most helpful in recovering the data in full, apart from the minor hiccup where our hard drive caused their PC to start smoking too ! Very professional.
Dave Romney
Splendid service, recovered a difficult hardware issue for a reasonable price.
Tommy Neilly
I called Western Digital tech support last month after my WD MyBook stopped working. They told me to try Payam and I'm glad I did. They were so helpful and got all my documents back fast. Was cheaper than I expected and the guys were very helpful when I was panicking. Thanks a million!!
Clements Clark
Our 4 drive business storage device had been unsuccessfully backing up for over 6 months (without our knowledge). Upon a second drive failing we finally became aware of the issue. With the failure of the second drive, access to all server information was unavailable.
With six months of valuable information no longer available we put our trust and hopes in Payam Data Recovery. We invested in a quick turnaround and were not disappointed. We are now back on track with all information recovered. Thank you for saving our bacon!!!
After a water damage incident that all but destroyed my laptop, I was in a complete panic as to what to do. I was in the middle of writing a postgraduate thesis and feared that I had lost it all, along with with all my photos, research and other various projects I had been working on for the past four years. I was referred to Payam Data Recovery by an Apple technician, and to my absolute delight (and relief!) they were able to retrieve just about everything off my hard drive! What is more, they were constantly in touch with me throughout the process with quotes, updates and general courtesy calls. I'm dedicating my degree to them! Thanks guys!
Sara Casey
Payam helped me recover the data on my USB. Kevin at the Brisbane office was wonderful and patient person in explaining everything to me. I am very happy with the service.
Peter Juniper.
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.
Kamal Mikhail
Highly professional, honest and efficient. would definitely used them again for critical data recovery if needed
Geoffrey B
My business consists of many training programs which are in PPT format. Being too busy to back up files I was faced with the inevitable when I experienced a major disc crash. Many people I spoke with, both in Australia and in Hong Kong, told me that it was a lost cause to get the information back. Not Payam. They were able to recover almost all of my information and I am incredibly grateful to them for the service they offer. Lesson 1. Backup all data Lesson 2. If the situation does go snafu get in touch with Payam
Trevor Hewitt
My experience with the Payam was extremely satisfying. The service provided by the staff at Payam from my initial email enquiry and throughout the process was highly professional and exceeded my expectations of service. Staff responded promptly to emails and returning phone calls,regularly provided feedback regarding the progress of my data recovery and bent over backwards to assist me when I collected my recovered data and answered all my questions in layman's terms. Thank you to all.
