Thank you for the excellent work. You had saved my all data from being lost.
Sam Diep
I am happy to say that Gray Anderson, the person I dealt with from start to finish, was friendly and professional throughout the process. I was kept informed every step of the way. All the data was recovered promptly and without fuss. I would recommend Payam data recovery service to anyone who have hard-drive problem.

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!!!!
Ettore Siracusa
Very satisfied. Friendly and reliable service and relatively inexpensive; two other quotes were more than double what I paid for at Payam. Happy to recommend.
Predecessor firm supplied my drive; on data loss they came up in a search online and responded to the enquiry with a competitive price. Supplied replacement drive and recovered data to it.
Jenny Stern
I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery. My iphone was 100% dead, I tried every possible process to wake it up and had been advised by a number of technicians that it was close to impossible to retrieve any data - Payam Data Recovery were successful. Thank you
Brad Corey
My hard drive suddenly stopped working. Visited several recovery companies and finally found Payam. Payam did a great job and recovered all my data. They also gave me a very reasonable price. Thank Payam!
Jayne McCabe
I cannot rate the service provided by Payam Data Recovery highly enough! I have done a few big things in my life, such as getting married and building a house where you would reasonably expect to receive great service, but this exceeded even those!!! Payam are very transparent and upfront about the service they provide and so you can rest assured that they will do everything to get your data back. The emails I received along the way were both regular - so I never had to wonder what was going on - and they addressed every question before I had even thought of it. The shipping and payment process is simple and hassle free. This is a good, honest Australian company and the best at what they do. Thank you Payam for recovering my memories!
Troy Williams
Unbelievable! Got told by apple + 5 other phone repair shops that my data was 100% uncoverable and not to waste my time with it and you guys managed to get it all back no problem! Should have gone here straight away
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
Robert Rigutto
I did a lot of research and called a lot of places , I even took my hard drive to a competitor , they couldn't do a thing after 1 week and were disorganized at best. I have extremely valuable information on my hard drive and it was the 2nd time this had happened to me. I was stressed and confused by all the options out there , but the best option is Payam Data recovery. They can never guarantee a result but they were hopefully and they retrieved it all and it was a complicated retrieval but they did it. I highly recommend them and their professional team.
Maria Vatos
A HUGE thank you to Paolo for recovering my severely water damaged iPhone! Also the to team at Payam for their professionalism, kindness and awesome service......so refreshing! After being told by two other technicians that there was no hope......Payam found a way!!! Paolo you must be acknowledged for your tenacious will to find a solution! I now have precious photos of my children and most recently of my newborn, which I thought I had lost forever.... Words cannot explain my gratitude and will be forever grateful!!! I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery Specialists! Amazing!!!
Thank you so much!
With Warmth

It is quite nervous for me to choose a company to recover my data as you know the data worth a lot, much more than the device itself nowadays, after reading some reviews I decide to choose your company as at least I can come
into your office and talk to someone, I am glad that I did, I can get back most of the data with high quality, apparently from the severe damage of the drive and I am very happy with the result, worth every single cent of it. Thank you.
Sean G.
Communication from both Payam and Craig in Melbourne was outstanding; I was kep updated on the recovery via email, voice and text and had the data that I thought was lost back in less than a week!
Daniel Matotek
Quality service center, it can be extremely expensive but if you are a business, use no other place these guys are true professionals
Jessica
After spending a lot of time researching the internet on how I could recover data from my Samsung Galaxy phone I come across Payam. Payam received my phone on Wednesday and on Friday I had a call telling me they had recovered my data. I felt like crying at this moment as I was so overwhelmed. I could not have been happier with the service and it was worth every cent been able to get back my Childs baby photos back! Would recommend Payam to everyone 🙂 Thank you Payam
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.
Jai Robinson
Great communication, great service, prompt. Not much more to say. Couldn't be happier with results would highly recommend
Colin Higginson
Very pleased with your service. Got us out of a potential huge mess.

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.
Chris
Thanks payam , for your amazing recovery . I can't believe that data could be recovered in less than 48 hours .
From the beginning of time during the submission of my Harddrive, you guys showed complete100% customer service . Thankyou to your team.
Eric Chen
I think You guys did an outstanding job for the amount of work needs to be done within a tight schedule that would be hard to achieve by any competitors in the industry. The most valuable to me is that you guys are willing to do the job with the right equipment to have the work done properly when requested for high priority service. Few in the industry can do so even offered to pay the right money. By this positive attitude, customers will keep coming back to do business with you and I’m sure your business will go very far. Of course, you deserve the fee charged for the work done with quality and professionalism even it can be costly. I was amazed with the knowledge and skills you have for the job.
It is grateful to mention the effort you guys put in to reinstall the windows on my laptop back to its pre-damaged state with a new hard drive, which has been working well ever since. I also received the backup drive with all the data i needed on the next delivery day at my door once the payment was cleared, so i could carry on with my work. It was just as promised without hassle or surprise. The communication in general was good and prompt.
I am happy with the overall service and definitely will use again and recommend to people who need the service.

Excellent Service - PAYAM successfully recovered 11 years of photos from my failed HD where others had failed. Their service was professional and personable and worth every penny.
Reading the other reviews for PAYAM, I wasn't surprised at the string of praises and 5 star ratings...
Sam Joseph
My wife's boss recommended Payam to me when our small business server crashed. We lost 5 years of invoices and accounting info without any backup. I called and Wes was very helpful on the phone and when i dropped it off in the city i spoke with Gray. Everyone was really helpful and told me the costs upfront. I got everything back for less than i expected in a week. Great service from a company i hope i will never need to use again, i am backing up religiously now.
Tammy Tattam
When my hard drive died I thought I had lost everything but Payam Data Recovery, recovered & saved my stuff very grateful
Frederic Lai Tham
Simply the best 🙂
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!
Jamal
Brought in both my 2 TB Segate HDD's gave them to Mark at Payam Data Recovery in St Kilda where he only took couple of days to diagnose my problem which i found to be amazing as they had completely stopped working turns out a simple pcb fault on the drives was nothing that he could not handle and in only 2 weeks he managed to save all my files on both drives 100% for a cheap price i was so very impressed with the time and professionalism mark has showed every step of the way 10/10 would Highly Recommend this service.
Merv Butterworth
My vote is that I thought your service levels were top of the class.
Ash Sydney
I was devastated when my local computer shop told me they could not recover the contents of my USB. It had picked up a virus the one and only time I had used it while travelling overseas and I was told I had lost all of the precious holiday photos that were on there.
A friend recommended I try and take the USB to someone who specialises in data recovery and that is the best advice I have ever taken! Paolo rang me within 24 hours of receiving my USB to tell me the good news. I could not believe he had saved them all, and for such a good price!
The professionalism and quality of service they provide is fantastic. I would recommend them as the first point of call to anyone who is serious about recovering their data.
S Salgo
My data was was lost midnight Thursday night, by Friday lunchtime we had tried everything to regain the media and failed. Then we contacted Payam, we got honest evaluation of the drives within 3 hours of delivering our black box. Payam and Mike then gave us a timetable of when we could expect the box back. To say that we were desperate was an understatement. We were given undertakings on feedback and return of the drives and every single one was met. We received the drives back 5 days later not bad when you have nearly 4tb of Data. We were back editing within 2 hours of return of the material. Great Job and Great service thank you for being as good as you word
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!
Marlon Simmons
The North Sydney branch retrieved some valuable data that was extremely important from a CF card. It was a hardware/circuit issue so I Got told 3 quotes and depending on the problem it would be anywhere between $220 - $700+
I was ready for worst case scenario and wouldn't have know any better so they could have said $700+ and u would have paid no questions but they were honest and told me it was a minor hardware issue and charged the minimum $220.
In addition from ongoing correspondence via phone and email, what really impressed me was their honestly and genuinely wanting to help.
Would definitely go back (fingers crossed I won't need to) but it's got to know there are pro's out there who can help in a what seems like a useless situation.

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.

I am very happy with the service received from Payam. They recovered most (maybe all) the data from from failed my 500gb laptop drive, and provided the service in under 48 hrs, for under $400. Although the full service price was similar to others, I selected PAYAM as they offered a sliding payment scale, meaning that I initially didn't have to put my hand too far in my pocket with no idea of the outcome. That is- the financial risk was lower. I found the staff helpful and polite on the phone,and at the office, and there was even a follow up call to see how I went. I have recommended PAYAM to several of my colleagues and will continue to do so. My experience was very good. When you balance the cost of recreating/assembling your work, the money was well spent. But it is still no substitute for an effective, confirmed backup. But you probably already know that otherwise you wouldn't be reading this review!
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
Shane Anderson
Payam recovered 100% of some crucial footage for our film shoot that was next to impossible to reshoot for our feature film project.
Total professionalism, great pricing and superb communication, if you need data recovery services, go to these guys first!
Michael Crichton
I called every data recovery company in town when my laptop hard drive crashed, I spoke with the guys at Payam on the phone and he was so helpful. In person they explained everything to men and showed me their prices on their web site. Great customer service and clear upfront prices.
Delia
Dropped my iPhone in the toilet - these guys retrieved all my data in 1-2 weeks! Super happy with their service. Very helpful guys
Max Rarates
I was so glad my data was all good once I got it back from Payam, Thank you for retrieving my data!
John Schaeffer
Thank you to the team of data recovery specialists at Payam. After much despair from seeking recovery services elsewhere and being told my data was unrecoverable, I sought out Payam.
Wished I’d gone there first. They were able to recover all of my irreplaceable valuable information (documents, photos, music files etc) which I thought had gone forever. Very reasonable price too. Excellent work and would definitely recommend Payam to anyone needing their valuable data recovered.
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

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.

Excellent service. Very professional. I thought I'd lost all my files and photos. Everything important to me was recovered. And they're an Australian company too!

Thank you Payam Data Recovery, thank you Kevin! The only company which is available all weekend. They recovered all of our lost data the same day. We are so happy that we got our world trip memories back. Worth every cent, five stars well deserved!
Caryn C.
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.
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
Larson Wolters
Required some Data from an old raid setup, the team at Payam are very helpful and efficient, kept me in the loop the whole way through the process. Great service would highly recommend!

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.
