Our memory card decided to pack it in right at the end of our overseas holiday :S, so we tried an unnamed data recovery company who wanted several hundred $ just to attempt the recovery! We took it to Payam and we had the data recovered,copied to a huge 32gb usb and back to us in 3days for less than 1/2 of what the other place wanted! The service was top notch and we were even given a discount because we were told our card recovery was impossible, turned out the bad news was for another customer. They recovered as much as they possibly could with our seriously stuffed card, and the overall service was much better then I would have expected.

Very happy with service.

You did a great job from start to finish, and it was very much appreciated.

I was devastated when our hard drive consisting of 3000 photos, including our kids baby photos decided to pack it in. We were told by a friend in forensics, there was only a 10% chance of retrieving them. He asked a colleague for a recommendation & this colleague recommended Payam! Thank goodness! Keith & the team recovered ALL our photos & files!!! I was so overwhelmed I started crying! Thank you so very much Payam, from an eternally grateful & happy customer!

"The main board on my notebook computer collapsed while I was working overseas. It was not able to be repaired. I was not unduly worried as I knew that I would be able to recover all the data off my hard disk and transfer it to a new computer.
Unfortunately it was not quite as easy as that. I was able to transfer most of my files but some key files could not be recovered. It turned out that some files were encrypted and there was nothing that I could do to get access to the data, which included all the files needed to file my BAS return. A few years earlier, while working on a special contract, my notebook computer had been set up as the master computer in a small network we established so that the others in the team could access our printer. My computer had had encryption placed on the files to ensure their security. The encryption was removed when the network was dismantled. What I did not realise was that the encryption remained on a number of the pre-existing files.
When I returned to Australia with my non-functioning computer, the repairer suggested that Payam might be able to recover my data for me. I took my hard disk to Payam to see what they could do for me. A couple of hours later they rang to say that they had recovered all my data, apart from a couple of inconsequential files. That was wonderful news as I was not relishing the prospect of attempting to reconstruct all my inadvertently encrypted files. Payam gave me a CD with all the data files from my hard disk and I was able to transfer them to my new computer without any problems.
The recovery process was very straightforward for Payam, as my hard disk contained the encryption algorithm, and they were able to access that algorithm. I might have been able to do something similar had I been able to find an identical computer to my non-working notebook computer, already an obsolete model, with an identical operating system, and install my hard disk on that computer. That was an uncertain and highly stressful undertaking, so I was extremely relieved that Payam had a straightforward process to access my encrypted data.

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.

I could not give a higher recommendation if I tried, I can't express how happy they've made me!! These people are incredibly friendly and professional, they are your go-to for any damage to your phone, especially water damage which is what I had, A phone that was never backed up, that wouldn't turn on and was deemed unfixable by other companies... I thought the photos and videos of my favourite people were gone forever, but no, thanks to Payam
Lynette Lamont
Fantastic service - very professional, helpful and friendly ... and they retrieved my data!!!
Jan BURNETT
When I needed urgent access to a couple of the retrieved files, before I had received back the retrieved data on hard disk, your staff sent me an email attachment with the 2 files I needed. They were also able to delay the deletion of your back-up copy of the retrieved data, until I had had a chance to fully check out all the retrieved data on the external hard disk.
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!

Kane in the Brisbane office is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to talk to. VERY happy with the Services received

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...
Stephen Schilg
All in all I couldn’t have been more pleased with the process. I was quoted over $800 by a local company, who couldn’t promise that it was able to be fixed.
I saw the prices on your website as well as the free quote and no fix no fee offers. Couldn’t have been a better deal. I posted the HDD down along with a spare to move the recovered data onto. I selected the economy option by the recovery was done within a week! Could not have been happier with the whole process!
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!

Kerry Mordue
We were absolutely thrilled with the results from your data recovery process. You were both professional and a prompt.
You kept us informed with every step and I can’t thank you enough for the results we gained by using your team.
Josh Dalt
Highly recommend Payam Data Recovery.
Craig was professional and extremely helpful, all of my data was recovered and I was kept informed throughout the whole process.
Don't think twice if you have a dead drive with lost information, Craig and his team will have it restored with little fuss and at a reasonable price.
Paul Lock
Payam recovered lost information without any fuss, the staff were efficient and professional and kept me informed as to total cost and progress. I would recommend Payam to as the data recover solution to any of my friends and colleagues.
Maryanne Blackman
Just wanted to say thank you for retrieving my data from a very broken USB stick. It had a lot of important information which I would have been lost without.
The whole process was easy and I really appreciated all of your help. I will definitely let others know about the service. Thank you again!

When you first start researching data recovery it can be pretty scary. My external hard drive with 5 years worth of the whole family's photos and backups couldn't be read. I found Payam with a simple Google and liked both the location and testimonials. I sent some screen shots in and then gave Craig a call. Perfectly explained, no data - no charge, could give an exact quote on inspection. I took it in, gave the go-ahead and a few days later (and that was the economy service) I had an email with a list of the files recovered. I now have all of my files for about an 8th of the price of printing all the photos. The service reminded me of how great service should be. Many Thanks....
Emma B
Excellent experience with Payam. They recovered data for me that no one else could. Definitely worth it to recover years of lost photos. Thank you!
Klaus Hooper
I recently moved states and regrettably I didn't backup my HDD, thankfully Payam was around to recover what I thought was lost, double thumbs up for sure and if I ever have the trouble again I'll be back for the excellent service and great people at Payam Brisbane!
John Hipwell
Best service yet for retrieving data removed in error. Great advice, professionalism and care. Thanks heaps Craig.

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!

Very professional. I rang up a few different places but decided to stop at Payam first because it was quite central (North Sydney) and their price was competitive. The fact that they assured no cost if the data was not recovered was great. All data was recovered and I saved my reputation. Overall a positive experience!
Wallace McGee
Your work was prompt, efficient and achieved 100% recovery. Excellent work and excellent service.
KishanGoonniah
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.
Jerry Nguyen
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.
Anthony A Malelis
I was blown away with the service and could not be happier. I would recommend to anyone!

My hard drive packed up. Found Payam by recommendation from friends. They did a great job of recovering all my data. Good reminder to me to backup my stuff on a regular basis. I would highly recommend them!

Payam Data Recovery performed an outstanding job they in recovering data from our damaged disk drive. As an organisation, I can say that we were impressed with the speed with which their team responded to our request and the courtesy and consideration extended to our staff. I was particularly impressed with the follow up contact, we received following the data recovery and the offers of assistance, should we need it. It is not often that I encounter an organisation which lives up to the claims made on its web site, but I am happy to say that, in my experience, Payam Data Recovery meets or exceeds all of the representations made on its web site. As a result of the way our incident was handled, I have recommended this organisation to other businesses we deal with and provided them with contact details. I can not think of a higher recommendation.
Harpreet
My laptop had crashed and I had all my uni data in the hard drive. I didn't want to lose this important data and I found Payam. Great service, friendly staff which is well technically informed. My data was saved and the price I paid was also reasonable. Thanks to Payam for the help.
Brendan Cheong
I contacted several different data recovery companies when my Raid 0 array failed. Payam responded the quickest, and not only that, provided me with a range of price options. Their lowest cost option was very competitive and quoted an expected completion time of 4 weeks.
I chose their lowest cost option as I was not in any hurry, but as it turned out, Payam recovered 100% of my data in under 10 days anyway. Communication from Payam was excellent, and I was regularly kept updated of their progress and expected completion time. Their staff was friendly and professional at all times.
I found Payam to be very knowledgeable, experienced, and above all, flexible and very customer centric. I have no reservations in recommending them to anyone
Kult Heaton
I was working onsite and a buckets of seawater was dumping on the deck above flooding my laptop, which had a lot of information necessary for my work. Payam Data Recovery, inspected the laptop and gave me a same day quote. All data was recovered. Very happy with the service though I hopefully won’t require their services again.
Kirsty
Time capsule backup seemed corrupt so rang Payam. Mark patiently assisted me, initially over the phone and then quickly helped me when I visited Payam’s offices. Excellent service.
Beth (surname withheld)
I am very pleased with the service and completed so quickly.I have already mentioned your service to friends.
Diver ss
I went to Payam after hearing their ad on the radio, the connection on my HDD had broken off the circuit board. They gave me a free quote and within 24 hours had told me they could help. The info I have on the drive is critical for my business and they had recovered 100% of it within a few days. I can now also get the drive replaced under warranty. Thanks very much and should I ever need to use them again I won't hesitate.
Kirsty Walker
Understanding, efficient and quick service. Mark very knowledgable and was able to assist me by retrieving my 'lost' information from a time capsule with patience and ability. Thank you.
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.
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!!!
Max Joassons
Had a great experience dealing with Craig from Payam data recovery. They kept me up to date with the whole process and were very quick with there turn around. They were able to recover all my data.
Matt Smith
Great service and exceeded expectations but returning my data 100% intact. Expensive but worth it for years of priceless photos and study records.
Daniel Kolic
A big thank you to Payam for recovering our two hard disk drives completely. We had a server running two mirrored SCSI hard disk drives. We thought we were protected, however both hard drives failed. We tried everything we could to recover the information but had no luck. Our last option was to get the professionals at Payam to recover the data for us and they were able to do this within 24 hours. Payam constantly kept us up to date with their progress and were extremely professional. I highly recommend their services.
Amy Favreau
I couldn't be happier with the work Payam done! I thought I had lost my photos forever and Payam data recovery brought every one of them back!

Payam Data Recovery at North Syd is great. Very professional and friendly service and price is low. Appreciate that they ring to get permission before they take the next step. They take the cheapest option possible. Would highly recommend them to anyone who seek to recover lost data.

I am a reseller of this company. They do free quotes and have always gotten my clients data back
