Lost photos of a holiday broke my daughter's heart. I formatted the picture card thinking the photos were on her computer. I was given Payam's number and Kevin retrieved the photos. Kevin was so professional and caring. Thank you so much.

Great. They helped me out of a spot and were nice to deal with.

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.

Amanda Barnes

Paolo and Vinh at Payam were amazing. Not only is their skill amazing but their customer service is 2nd to none! I delivered them my water damaged iphone with precious photos from a recent trip, and within a few days they called with good news they'd been able to recover my data. The best thing is how easy they make it. They provided me with a USB with all my files, but also an iTunes Backup file which I easily restored to my new phone with a little help on the phone from AppleCare. Thanks guys I'll definitely be recommending you to anyone who finds themselves in my position. Cheers

Sandy McManus

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

Steve Gellyn

To Wes and your team at Payam, I would like to say thank you for recovering my hard drive with all my photos and personal information on it. The service and professionalism you and your team showed is outstanding, and I will let all know!!!

Ian Leung

Best data recovery service ever!! Don’t risk it to others, they’re overpriced and sucks! I had a hard disk broken, dead by shock, and I took it to them. They gave me a quote in 24 hrs, and started the job. It was a very hard thing to recover, as it had severe damage. It took longer than expected, however, they recovered my precious, priceless data! Payam data made my (not day), life! I even wanted to pay more than the cost! Don’t risk on other companies, best experience ever. I’ve recommend this to everyone. They can do the impossible!!! Friendly service, and always keep me update of the status. Highly recommend it. If you have loss data, don’t risk other, take it to the pros, Payam Data.

Bernie McComish

My hard drive died, the IT company I use could not recover any files. Panic, we run a business from home, many years of data etc gone plus all my precious photo’s. Layne, my IT specialist took it into Payam, they recovered all, in a timely &, efficiently manner, great service, would 100% recommend them. I owe them super good. WELL DONE THANK YOU

Paul Barber

I would highly recommend Payam to anyone that has had a hard drive fail. It was the worst feeling when it happened but the guys sorted it out with no fuss. Above all else I appreciated not being taken for a ride to get priceless family videos back.

Nick Ni

Had a WD mybooklive 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.

Burt Finlen

I had plenty of experience many years ago with he team, but changed between jobs since then. At my job we had a client destroy a ms surface, unfortunately they did not back up any data at all, everything that was potentially lost was business critical.
I suggested Payam and a co-worker called the Melbourne office in a frantic manner. The staff member we spoke to assured us that the service could be done, and if needed, Payam would have staff there working 24x7 to recover this data. All pricing was discussed and clear. After a bit of back and forth, somehow we ended up speaking to Payam himself, he was great! Such a passionate person to be able to answer a phone and speak directly with the customers he supports.
In the end it turns out we were able to turn the device on just long enough to get what we needed, although we didn't end up needing the service, the entire team at Payam were still cheerful and happy to have spoken to us and be able to provide us with the best possible service. There is no one else in the business I would trust with my data! Thank you Payam and thank you to your team!

Xodotodo

Excellent and prompt service. Not only were they great with my data and recovered all of it - they have great customer service and were always friendly and knowledgeable. From the very beginning I felt like I was in the right hands, and that they were dealing with me in an honest and professional manner.

Nicole Watson

I am very pleased with my experience. They recovered most of my data and were very friendly and communicative throughout the entire experience. I would definitely return to them in the future but for obvious reasons really hope I never have to

Bhakti

I was very happy with the service received.

Signworks

We were referred to Payam after our computer technician was unable to help with a hard drive that had been affected by a power surge. The team were more than helpful, keeping us updated by phone with their progress. Payam managed to recover 100% of the data we had lost and our brand new hard drive was delivered with in the week. Couldn't have been happier with the price. Fingers crossed we won't need to use their services again any time soon but we would definitely recommend them!

Kelly Watson

I couldn’t be happier with the work data recovery done! I thought I had lost my photos for ever & data recovery brought every one of them back!!

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.

Ian Jenkins

Just to let you know that my daughter was very happy with the data retrieval from her broken USB thumb drive. She said that at least 98% of the files were OK. There were a small number that were corrupted, most likely the ones that were open at the time that the computer and USB fell on the floor.

She has now made several back-ups! and said to thank you very much. She is very grateful.

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!

Patrcia Hall

I just want to thank the Payam team. You guys really took the time to recover all files from my faulty hard drive which has5 years worth of work on it. You recovered almost all of it and I couldn't be more happy. You kept in contact and always informed me what was going to happen. You guys are amazing, service is amazing! Highly recommended. Thanks again!

Ria Claassens

Really happy with the data recovery work you guys did for me, so very grateful I got my data back. Thank you so very much, will be backing everything up in the future.

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!

Matthew Cooley

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!

Beth (surname withheld)

I am very pleased with the service and completed so quickly.I have already mentioned your service to friends.

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.

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.

Julie Green

Completely recovered all files from corrupted hard drive. Very efficient service.

Marcos J.

We contacted Payam data recovery recently following our hard drive crashing. Everything that was quoted was accomplished and we were impressed with their professional customer service. 5 stars!!

Andrew Stewart

After going to other places had a great experience with this company and got regular updates on what was happening and also got all the data back which is fabulous

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.

Billy Lewis

Fast as, all my data back and the cheapest I could find! Also the student discount was super handy. Cheers Payam

Ashleigh Roome

Thanks for retrieving my holiday photos!

Emilyy_246

I can not thank these guys enough!! i was travelling overseas with a group of friends taking photos on my iphone. Sadly one of my friends lost his life overseas and on the second last day my iphone hardware malfunctioned and my phone turned into a brick, losing all our memories. i went to a shop who said it wasn't their problem and i will never get my data back. THANKFULLY for the team at PAYAM Data recovery i was able to get back all of my pictures and nearly all the data was recovered from my phone. meant so much to me, such as lovely company always kept me up to date.

Kim Kerr

I was given a 2 GB Olympus memory card purchased new on eBay. Half way through a 4 week trip to the UK, the card stopped working. When we returned home, our computer couldnt read it, so we took it to Olympus to be told it was a counterfeit card. They would have nothing to do with it. We then took it to a forensic computer specialist, who also could do nothing with the card. We came across PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd when doing an internet search. I took the card to the North Sydney Office and was told I would know fairly soon if the photos were recoverable. The card was sent to the Melbourne office and Mark began working on it. He kept me informed about the progress recovering the data. It took longer than originally expected, because not only was the card a forgery, it was only 1GB, not 2 which made a difference in the recovery process. I was very impressed with Marks determination to get the photos and the fact that he would not give up. The time it took was immaterial as I just wanted my photos. I was also impressed that I would be charged a flat fee for the recovery. I would not hesitate to recommend PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. Kim Ker

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 🙂

My company (SME) had a major server crash, which meant all of our data on both server HDD's was corrupted or lost. We also found to our surprise and horror that our backups hadn't been functioning properly since a previous server issue late last year- so we only had project and company data up to that point and nothing from November to March. I Googled 'data recovery' and went with the reviews I read. I contacted the Payam team who were very professional and efficient from the outset. They gave me a straightforward and honest assessment about the chances of recovering the data, but I always felt they would do everything possible to recover it. Thankfully they were able to recover everything for us...sigh of relief....and we have also established a new back-up policy/test process!! I would have no hesitation in recommending Payam for this service- very impressed.

My Hard drive on my laptop died recently without any warning, as such I had to replace the hard drive but doing so I lost thousands of files being a small business I could never replace.
I connected with Payam, and they were so helpful on what needed to be done, and once they received my hard drive they more or less let me know every step of the way of the process. Once finished and they had retrieved 99.9% of my files, they sent me an email and SMS letting me know of the good news and a link showing the files that had been retrieved. I will be ever so grateful to them.

The BEST service ever. I was assisted by Tim. Tim has been absolutely amazing. From the start he was extremely informative about all the procedures and steps that would take place. His knowledge and skills are so incredible and advanced. He knows exactly what he is doing and advised me the best solutions along the whole way. He is highly experianced. He went beyond helping me understand data recovery and steps I could take in future in order to have a good backup.

My laptop (Macbook air) was fixed and I was able to receive 100% of my data back.

I am so happy with Payam ! The staff are incredibly nice.

I would highly recommend Payam to anyone who have broken their tech gadgets or are facing any issues.

BIG THANKYOU😊😊😊

I had 2 laptops that I needed data recovered from and Payam were so helpful! They got my data back from one of my laptops on the spot, and the other laptop was super fast too. They also provided good advice regarding warranty claims for the laptop and on ways to back up my data in the future. Can’t recommend them enough!
