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!

You did a great job from start to finish, and it was very much appreciated.
I had ten years worth of family photos, videos, music and general documents on my computer when I recently upgraded. I had done the right thing and backed all of my files onto an external HDD and then formatted the old drive and gave it a new life as a gaming machine for the kids. Unfortunately, I plugged the wrong power supply into the external HDD as I went to transfer all the files onto my new PC. I knew straight away there was something wrong, as the LED didn't come on and there was that horrible smell of burning circuits. I had also bought a NAS with the new computer, so I pulled the external HDD apart and hoped to install the drive into the NAS and recover the data myself......of course that didn't work. I rang every company on the Gold Coast and Brisbane that advertised data recovery (there were alot!) but most of them didn't recover from damaged drives, while those that did wanted to charge me thousands. From there I expanded my search and found Payam in Sydney. To be honest I was wary at first because they were significantly cheaper than most others, but in the end I need not have worried. Not only did they fix the drive for the agreed price, but they called me back with progress reports....twice....without me hassling! In the end I was thoroughly impressed with their service and their prices. I would recommend them any day, and while I don't ever want to use their services again, I would use them above all others.

I was rapt with your service and the results. The recovered material is essential to my son’s university course and we were most appreciative both of the results and the reasonable cost of the service provided.

I absolutely loved dealing with everyone at Payam the process was super-efficient and professional and all my data was recovered! My computer was drenched in water and I thought I would have had to pay a fortune to retrieve everything but i was given a reasonable price and quick recovery time. Thank you so much again, really saved me!!

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!! 🙂
After my 1Tb drive containing Videos of two weddings, Family videos and photos events and irreplaceable data died,. I nearly lost faith in computers.,(Yes this is the drive I backed up the files to). My computer supplier could not recover the files and referred me to PAYAM. Fearing the worst I spoke to Mike and Payam who impressed me with their caring and supportive suggestions offering me hope for a complete recovery of all data. Not only did they achieve this even though the hard drive was completely corrupted but they allowed me to verify that all the files were readable and that I was satisfied before payment was made. A price had been negotiated beforehand with which I was extremely satisfied with. I was contacted by Payam a few days later just to check that I was completely satisfied , with an offer to help if I had any problems. I have no hesitation in recommending their Gold Star service to anyone in similar stressful circumstances. They are Competent Diligent and Caring and as far as I am concerned they are like Intensive Care the save the data and alleviate the stress of the customer. Pardon the pun but you have nothing To looSE See You Next time Mike
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!!!

Having decided to back up my hard drive externally "when I just get these couple of things up to date" Murphy's Law intervened, and I was left with no access to all my business and tax information. Panic search of Google led me to Payam Data Recovery. A phone call to Craig and an explanation of what had happened left me with SOME hope, so I sent off the recalcitrant drive by express post, and waited for the prognosis with some trepidation. I need not have worried. Craig contacted me very promptly, outlined my options, and within a short time, I had new internal and external hard drives, and access to ALL my data.
I live in a very small town, and when dealing with businesses by telephone I'm accustomed to having to ring several times, be shunted from one person to the next, explain the problem several times to different people, and end up with very little if any satisfactory results, so I particularly appreciated Craig's promptness, honesty, and the excellent service he delivered. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him and his team.

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.
Anika Parks
IMAC HDD failed, they got the data back fast, plain and simple. Pretty easy to get there (Queen street) Great service, Great guys! We recommend them highly!
cameronc42
Great price, great service, great business! My work external drive died and Payam recovered all my files and put them onto a new drive for a fraction of the cost I was quoted elsewhere. I took the new drive back to work and spent a day updating and sorting all my job files on the drive. I then left it with another unit within my workplace for them to backup the files to a server. I was totally shattered when they dropped the new drive and stuffed it. I took it back to Payam and they fixed the drive for free. Awesome service! Thanks for your help guys.

I was in tears when my USB flash drive snapped in half. Another data recovery company had it for 3 days and said it could not be recovered. Payam Data Recovery told me they recovered it using a chip off method that not many other places could do in the world. I believed them as i got all of my data back about 5 days later. I hope i never need data recovery again but i would definitely recommend Payam data recovery.
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
Scott E
I was told that the likelihood of even recovering my external hard drive was 20-30% from another person.......... but when I took it to Payam they told me they would try their best - and boy did they deliver - They recovered 91% of my lost data - and this was amazing considering I thought I would not have a hope in actually recovering it at all - The team at Payam were beyond Fantastic and I can't thank them enough = I will definitely be using them again if I am ever in a situation like I was.

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.
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.
Robert Ceic
Very happy with service. In this information age, knowing that such a service is available is quite comforting
Massimo Papa
Payam data recovery has saved my business. I went overseas and when I got back my Nas double hard drives were not working anymore, both of them. I took the hard drives, still in warranty, to the shop where I bought them, but they told me that they could not do anything, than I found Payam data recovery in Perth. In only 3 days I got all my data back up and the staff gave me tips on what to do to prevent it from happening again. Since than I have recommended them to some of my friends and they always came back very happy.
Noela Read
I was extremely happy that you were able to recover my lost data (photos). I think they are pretty much 100% all there. I never expected to see the photos again after I had let an incompetent company have first go. I wish I had found your company sooner. If I ever have another lost data situation, I know where to come and will certainly recommend your company to any friends in need. Thank you very much
Garth Roche
I was happy with all aspects of the service.
Anthony A Malelis
I was blown away with the service and could not be happier. I would recommend to anyone!
Duncan Marshall
I had a great experience when a NAS enclosure failed. PDR were able to quickly ascertain that the disks and associated data were intact, and recovered all data, whilst keeping me informed of the progress.. Great service. Well done
Audrey Dyer
Thought all the photos from my iphone were gone but after having the phone for only a day, Payam had recovered all the data and sent my iphone back. Could not be happier
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.
Jennifer Baxa
Wow! You saved 10 years of my kids photos from birth to school. I was devastated. After calling Western Digital support they told me to give you a call. I'm glad I did. Awesome service.
Mudassar Hafeez
An exceptional service, uncompromised quality, excellent customer service and job well done. Highly recommended. Don't go anywhere if need your data back at any cost. Just use Payam and sit back and relax 🙂
Keep up the good work team

LIFE SAVER- I foolishly formatted a memory card which contained the birth and first 2 weeks of pics taken of my first born baby boy. Needless to say, I was devastated and very distraught. After a quick internet search I found PAYAM Data Recovery and all the reviews were highly positive. Craig was extremely professional and honest and within 24 hours he had recovered my precious images at a very reasonable cost. Now I can share these special moments with my son when he grows up and it’s all thanks to the know-how of PAYAM. I would highly recommend them in any circumstance where their services may be required. Thanks Craig and if I could add any more stars to this rating I would…
Penelope Harmon
Payam provided an amazing service. My hard drive had some extremely important documents on there which had not been backed up recently and it would be very stressful if I lost them. They kept me informed throughout the process, and in the end recovered all of the data I needed. They were very professional and did an amazing job. Thanks Payam!
Tammy Tattam
When my hard drive died I thought I had lost everything but Payam Data Recovery, recovered & saved my stuff very grateful
Karl Balian
Hi, i was extremely happy, you recovered all of the videos from our MacBook and especially the one we thought we had lost, a very special and funny video of our son. Priceless!
Doug Smith
Excellent work achieved without delay. I thank you.
Sean Brennan
Thought we’d lost 16 years’ worth of our family photo’s…so relieved and extremely happy Payam recovered 100% from our ‘dead’ HDD. Highly recommend Payam’s professional service, keeping us informed along the entire process.
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
Devyani Rangnekar
I was highly impressed with the prompt and efficient service provided by PAYAM. I received updates from the consultant I dealt with exactly when I was told I would. My USB flash drive stopped working and I was at risk of either losing a great deal of personal and work data, or paying exorbitant sums of money in order to recover it. In comparison to a lot of other quotes that I got PAYAM was reasonable and I got all my data back. I highly recommend their services.
Harry Brayshaw
Thank you for your work in recovering the data on the damaged hard drive. We were pleased with the results and will recommend your service to others.
Cherrilyne
The work was professional, reliable and friendly and kept in touch step by step Would recommend this company to anyone, also you can negotiate payment plans to suit your budget
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.
Ned Farhat
Outstanding work time and again, no matter how complex the situation. Always keen to work with me on urgent requirements and deliver a quality outcome. Would never recommend anyone else.
Luke Jackson
I knocked over my external hard drive while in the process of backing it up. I took it to Payam and they assessed it and gave me a quote within 24 hours. Once I agreed to the quote I had all my data back within a week. Friendly polite and professional staff.
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.
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!
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.
Emma Burnard
Very professional and efficient. They recovered important data that other shops could not do
Anthony A Malelis
I was blown away with the service and could not be happier. I would recommend to anyone!
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.
Starwoman8
Everyone dreads that moment when a computer of hard disk fails and you need data recovery services. To start with, they are never cheap and you are left wondering if it will be possible to recover your precious data. I am so glad we came here and got everything back. Payam were so profession and prompt and gave great advice. Thank you!
johngauci2000
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.
Angela Giagodi
Great service! Payam data not only recovered all critical data possible but they also kept us updated with progress along the way. Thanks - have already recommended you to a friend.
Brad Cann
Friendly staff, perfect services. My 500GB hdd has MBR corrupted and I tried couple of recovery software but unsuccessful. I brought it to Payam Data Recovery with very little hope but they help me to recover everything. I would recommend this service to my friends.
