Paula Tripp

Excellent service done by Wes. All data was recovered and saved to a new hard drive and completed in good time and returned to me. Only having to pay if able to recover data. Thank you.

Katherine Wall

Very happy with the service, especially as I was so stressed! Payam were able to recover everything I had lost and even got my Time Machine working again so I could restore everything back onto my computer. Thanks

Leon Ure

Payam managed to recover nearly all of my files, including non-generic formats, after the corrupted HDD was formatted and then another HDD was cloned over the top of it. I highly recommend Payam!

USB flash drive crushing, Payam data recovery to the rescue. Good job guys!

Grahame

I was overseas and away from my backup when the hard disk failed. The local 'experts' were unable to restore any data at all - and wasted much time - and had no idea what they were doing. On returning home, Payam was able to recover all of the data for me, and provided prompt and efficient service while doing so, at the stated price without any mucking around.

Phillip Busch

I called last week and spoke with Kevin. He was so helpful on the phone. I passed on Payam's contact details to my client to deal directly with them.

Stanley Campbell

My experience with Payam was extremely satisfying. The service provided by the staff at Payam from my initial email inquiry and throughout the process was highly professional and exceeded my expectations of service. Staff responded too promptly to emails and returning phone calls, regularly provided feedback regarding 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.

Dave Owens

We were very happy with the work done to retrieve the data. There was four years of company work that we desperately needed retrieved and it was done without any fuss

Bruce Rea

It was with great relief that Payam Data Recovery were able to recover in excess of 95% of the data on my hard drive. I opted for the cheaper method of waiting but I was impressed with the service given.

I recently lost important data on an external hard drive. I was referred to Payam by my IT department. They had no prior experience of them but sent me their contact details based on website information. I received prompt and kind service. I was listened to carefully, given realistic expectations of the recovery outcome and shown empathy in relation to my frustration. The parking and access facilitated the speedy service. I did not see anyone dressed like the image in the website. I experienced a highly professional service. Strongly recommend.

Matthew Keith

Our business has recently started utilising the service of data recovery that Payam offers. They are a very professional unit and work seamlessly with our end users. On each occasion Payam has been able to complete full data recoveries. Thank you!

Katherine Pearce

So impressed, not only were they able to recover all my data but they are extremely professional. For free, they quoted me a price within a day and took into account my student status. Additionally, they showed me how to access all the recovered data and called me back a week later to see if everything was alright. Don't bother with mac medic or apple care, Payam Data Recovery is definitely the way to go!

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

This mob have saved my life. Had a massive meltdown on my NAS server (fried mobo) that in turn corrupted my operating system. After bringing it online again my RAD5 set was completely stuffed containing years of family fotos, software development, design etc and other important information - Sure I should have had a regular backup done but that was not the case - kicking myself for that and have now taken steps from this ever happening to me again. When I was faced with this mess and realizing this was a job to big for me to take on I started to look into the possibility of seeking professional help by someone with the detailed knowledge of RAD5. I had 8tb striped across four disks and felt desperate of at least recovering the many photos and movies from my children childhood. Started to look around for companies. Got in touch with 5-6 and they all came back with "sorry mate - this is unrecoverable" - These were all companies claiming year and years of solid expertise in the area - none able to assist. A few came back with "unlikely to recover anything but if you insist us giving it a try then it will cost you $$$$$ - non refundable with no guarantees given" - sounded like money for nothing to me. Then while kicking myself in the office a colleague of mine @ commerce mentioned Payam Data Recovery as someone being good that the department used in past. Got in touch with Payam Data Recovery. The discussion were very friendly where Payam gave me some hope of at least being able to recover some of the data. The really good thing from my side where that they would only charge me in the event that they were successful and I were happy with the result. One thing lead to another and after passing on the disks to them where they worked on these for a few weeks I received a message containing a full directory listing of every single file I had stored on this RAID set. Needless to say this made my day. Close inspection of the date revealed a 100% success on the data recovery. Payam have not saved just my day - they have allowed my children to one day look back on photos of their childhood - irreplaceable! They have been very easy to deal with willing to go out of their way to assist me and I would be the first to recommend this mob to anyone facing a similar situation.

When i discovered my crucial data was 'lost' I contacted a I.T technician who said it was highly unlikely that the data could be retrieved but recommended Payam as the place that could most likely find it, if anyone had any chance to?!?....Distressed and desperate I contacted Payam and was calmly talked through the process.Essentially if they couldn't retrieve the data I would not have to pay all the costs and if they did find the data the price was negotiable based on what work they did. I ventured to their office prepared to offer a blank cheque but was pleasantly surprised with the cost of the quality work, but more so impressed by their exceptional customer service. Payam offered me premium customer service for the economy price and were able to retrieve 98% of my missing data in less than 3 working days. They also very generously copied all my data onto a clean hard drive and posted it free of charge to my workplace.Knowing how stressful this time of year was for me, they took an even more personalised approach and provided the hard drive free of charge. I can't tell you how easy it was dealing with Payam. Their work is superb , their customer service is outstanding and communication with them was constant and clear. Just the other day I received an email from Payam letting me know that they were available to chat to if I needed assistance working through my recovered data. I have placed their business card at work and have shared the story of how generous and personalised their customer service was, let alone how amazing their work is to anyone who will listen! Please do not hesitate to contact them for help, I strongly recommend their services to anyone who experiences the grief of data loss. Thanks Payam, words can't express my gratitude for your assistance. I wish you guys all the best in the new year 🙂

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.

Erin

Fast Prompt and delivered what other companies said was impossible! High Recommended. I have been recommended their service to everyone in a similar situation. Can't fault their service.

Carolyn Nankervis

Thank u Payam guys & girls!!! The successful recovery of my treasured & priceless photos was very special. Thanks soooo much.

Joseph Anthony

I love your work, it was fantastic service, and should you ever require it I will recommend you to the Pope for sainthood – you have performed miracles and resurrected my hard drive. I will definitely be recommending you to anyone with a data recovery problem.

Max Rarates

I was so glad my data was all good once I got it back from Payam, Thank you for retrieving my data!

Beth B

A friend in the industry recommended Payam, after my laptop had taken a tumble and sustained significant hard drive damage. Their website was really clear in terms of the process they offered and they gave great control to me in terms of whether to proceed. They retrieved 100% of my data, quicker than they had quoted, and true to budget. Everything about their service was great: response time, clarity of information, customer service interface and the result perfect!

Sean Humphrey

Amazing company, recovered all my data. Thank you.

Magdalena Lapcevic

My 1T external hard drive failed while I was backing up!  There were over 25 jobs in there, the hard drive was not working ... I was in a panic in my clients needed there images for an upcoming publication!!!  Thank goodness for these guys!! Superb team who found all the data and in record time!  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Kalvin Dever

We recently had a disk turn faulty in our 4 Tb striped raid storage.   Consequently, we faced loosing all the data, some of which was irreplaceable.  I found Payam after a Google search and some phone calls to other storage recovery service providers.  Payam was the only one who understood the importance of the data to us.  I sent the whole device to him and could not be happier with the service.  It was fantastic.  He gave me a quote with different options including timeframes from which I could choose – and then he met them.  I guess the ultimate endorsement is that I have sent a second disk with faulty heads to Payam to have the data recovered.   If you need data recovered and customer service is important to you then give Payam a call.

Peter Macallef

The one thing that I valued most in my business life has been Customer Service. The customer service I received from Lachlan was extremely good, I knew what was happening at all times and the retrieval of my Photos was the highest priority and successfully achieved

Heather Donovan

Was really thrilled that Payam were able to recover all my data from my broken hard drive. This was done in a really timely manner and I would recommend this company to everyone who was in the same dilemma. Would most definitely use them again.

Daniel Rossi

Very happy with the work performed, all data was retrieved and able to be accessed and copied to the new drive.

The team was very friendly and willing to provide solutions that could meet my requirements and also advised of any potential costs that can occur depending upon the findings.

The process throughout was simple which was good for a task involving data that contained so much sentimental value.

Say Hipson

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!

Melanie Becker

I think you did a fabulous job – keep up the good work!

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.

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.

One day I discovered that I wasn't able to open photos and iTunes music from my external hard drive. It had corrupted. I tried a number of downloaded applications that colleagues had used to retrieve data. Unfortunately they didn’t work for me. PAYAM were close by and did a good professional job. They were able to retrieve all my lost data for me.

Jia

The service is so professional. Also, they gave me back earlier than they promised. All data comes back, which saves my day

James Farina

Payam Data are amazing. They recovered the birth of my daughter on DVD. They made my day, It was like winning the lotto. I am ever so grateful for their amazing work. Thank you! Thank you!

Aaron Hare

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.

Cassette

These guys literally saved my life! I was DJing at Ivy and the dj after me knocked my mac laptop off the stage and into the chlorinated water surrounding the stage (without realizing). It was under water for at least 10 minutes! I came back from the bathroom to see it at the bottom of the moat.

Despite the extensive water damage, these guys managed to recover ALL my data within a month!

Very happy with the fast, friendly, efficient and professional service they provided!! 🙂

Claire Ammerman

So thrilled you could get all of my baby photos back after my 2 year old dropped my Mac Book laptop on the ground. So happy I found you after my Apple guy said it was impossible. Awesome service!

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++++!!

Leon Silver

I was very happy with your work. You were fast, efficient and good value. I will certainly use you next time.

Alex Giangrasso

Marco Albrecht

Very happy with the service!

Paul Luxford

My hard drive stopped working and so I took it to Payam Data Recovery and they were able to get all my valuable photos and videos and info back without any issues. I am really happy and will never hesitate to suggest Payam to anyone.

Eddy Hartnet

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.

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!

Melanie Avion

Brilliant Service! Rescued precious data I thought was gone for ever!

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!

Tania Pickering

“I was really happy. I will recommend you guys!

Stephen Pittman

Given the nature of my requirements – family photos/personal files that weren’t time sensitive, but absolutely precious – I am very happy with the result, which was a 99.8% recovery – AWESOME!

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.

Sending a hard drive with physical damage to attempt data recovery of a number of important files. They were completely successful in recovery of the requested data. And even before the job began were able to answer questions pertaining to their process and job information.

And excellent and fast service with amazing communication.

Highly recommended for your similar needs.

Wife's phone died without any warning and she had not had time backup photos. Luckily Payam were able to recover them all. Not the cheapest service, but what price can you put on memories? They retrieved 27GB of data, over 14,000 photos and 250 videos. Made a very happy wife when she got the backup drive Christmas morning. Staff were very polite.
Only one very small area of improvement for them would be to provide a little more comms. We chose the Economy Service (1-2 weeks) that took 3.5 weeks. Acknowledging that website states times subject to change, however there was no comms from them, it was only when I chased status updates.

I just received the email from Payam about the recovery files of my very old external hardrive. I am literally in happy tears watching the preview video of my recovered folders and files. I'm talking old samsung files, sanyo digital camera files, old pc files, all my old pictures, videos my whole youth basically. I'm still crying as I write this and although I haven't received my hard drive back they have advised that about 49,000 of my files have been recovered. I can't begin to explain how grateful I am. The price paid to this team is worth every penny. These memories are priceless and I am beyond happy and grateful. Thank you thank you thank you! Back up your hardrives people, get them onto the cloud, have backups of backups because the pain or thought of losing them is not worth it, which I pretty much did due to damaged heads on the hardrive. I can't wait to reunite with my pictures and videos 🙂 🙂 🙂 thank you again team!
