After the death of my daughter, I had been all over Sydney and QLD to find someone who could recover the photos of my precious girl. The service I received was phenomenal and I would recommend them to anyone.

THANK YOU PAYAM!!!! Our hard drive decided to crash without warning and we stood to lose 3 months worth of MYOB plus all our photos, music and personal documents. I called Payam and from start to finish they were awesome. Great customer service, a really quick process and all for a reasonable price. I called other data recovery businesses but their prices and customer service didn't stack up to Payam. I totally recommend Payam Data Recovery. THANKS AGAIN!!! You turned a very stressful situation into a manageable one 🙂

My RAID-5 Server crashed, 2 drives had were clicking. I sent this to 3 other data recovery companies (1 in North Sydney, 1 in Melbourne and the last was a global firm in QLD). None of them could recover the data, after 3 months i had lost all hope. I was heard an Ad for Payam Data Recovery on Radio. Their ad said 'nothing is impossible!'. After 2 days, they recovered all of my data. I could not believe it. It cost me only $800 (the other companies quoted $2,500-$7,000 which i actually did approved all 3 quotes as i was desperate but none of them could fix the problem! I got all my MYOB accounting files, outlook pst email files and family photos back. Next time i'll go to Payam 1st! Cheaper and better than the other companies that were just full of crap! Very friendly service, good customer service is hard to find - and their service was flawless! I am very happy, they were better, faster and cheaper than other companies. Well done. I'll be your walking 'word of mouth' billboard for the rest of my life. Thank you for saving my business!

I have used Payam's services for years and I have never been disappointed.

That desperate sinking feeling of your hard drive failing can spoil your whole day. Thanks to Payam within a few days I had all my data recovered and back in my new computer.
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.

We have been using Payam's services for the last couple of years and have always found them to be highly professional, capable and courteous. They have helped many of our customers recover data that would otherwise have been lost and at a very competitive price. We are extremely happy with their service and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to anyone with hard drive problems. We anticipate using Payam for all our data recovery requirements for years to come.

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.
Alison Wong
AMAZING. I was devastated after I was told by other phone shop/s that data was irrecoverable on my phone (3 years of un-backed up memories right there). I wasn't in a rush (2-3 week expected) but I got a call back from Lachlan in 2 days saying it was all restored successfully. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You guys are amazing
David Crofts
A very genuine company that cares about its customers. Their obligation-free quote is exactly that, obligation-free and with no hidden charges. They were able to recover all my data from my corrupt HDD at quote price and within the timeframe, whilst displaying great professionalism and prompt responses to my queries.
P.S. Shoutout to Kane from the Brisbane office for his professionalism.
Kate Roulston
Amazing! Were able to recover data from dead iPhone so quickly! So thankful I got it all back. Thanks so much

Your services 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!
Harry Montgomery
I would like to thanks the team at Payam Data Recovery for the help they given us. My phone was water damaged and had gone blank. The photos of my daughter’s birth were on it. Samsung said they could not help me and I got the same response from any other company I engaged. That phone has been in my car for over a year now just in case I could find someone. I was told about PDR and within a week they have extracted. the photos and they are being delivered. I can't thank you enough. Happy wife, happy life! I will recommend you anytime I can
My girlfriend's hard disk got stuffed without warning and no signs at all, and it froze the computer completely. I had no idea what to do and since she was starting up her own business, she had a lot of critical files on her disk. I searched the web and came across Payam. Firstly, the website was good. They were detailed, and gave straightforward quotes. There was no hidden costs involved. Also, they had the lowest prices across a few other companies that came up in my search, which were charging $1000 and above. I rang them up. They were very professional and very friendly. I sent the hard disk in and within 4 days, I could collect the hard disk (I did provide them with a new one since the old one was completely screwed, but they do sell HDD as well) and they retrieved the data as well to my relief. I would highly recommend Payam to anyone who is unfortunate enough to encounter HDD failures. But I would say you are in good hands when your disk comes to Payam. Staff are friendly, reliable and competent.

We were very happy with the service of taking a hard drive array set and restore all of the data for our client.

The staff was very professional and knowledgeable. I found their reviews on google and they were very positive. They were able to recover and save my hard drive with the files on it. Thank you! Thank you!

We recently had both our Primary and backup data storage devices dine in the same week, Payam were quick, professional, communicated clearly and stuck to time frames, couldn't have had a better experience.

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...
Amanda Scott
Couldn't have asked for a better service, my hard drive couldn't be read by the computer technician, he then recommended Payam. I posted in the hard drive and received a phone call to confirm they had received it, then after only a few hours I received the call to say they could recover the data and gave me a free quote, I opted for the economy service, due to moving house, and was over the moon to hear after a few days that it was successful, they then arranged for the external hard drive and my old hard drive to sent back to me by courier. I would highly recommend Payam to anyone the service was fast, professional and I was keep up to date on progress throughout. Thanks for everything. Amanda
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.
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
Our business relies on digital storage and when a drive fails it can cause great concern. We recently experienced an issue with a drive that was used to store critical client data. Without hesitation we sent the drive to PAYAM Data Recovery and they have successfully recovered all data and returned it to us on a new drive. Their communication and service is professional and courteous and everything they promised was delivered. If we have any future hard drive or data recovery issues they’ll again be my first – and only - call. NextGen Studios.

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!
Rik Pene
The service and care that was taken during our time of need from having our businesses data corrupted was amazing! It was a stressful time for us but we were put at ease from how professional Kane and Leigh handled the situation. We will always recommend Payam to anyone that requires data recovery services!
Su Johnson
Very happy with Payam’s services. Tried the local IT shop, useless! Next time will go straight to Payam.

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.

Not cheap but you get the quality recovery service you pay for.

A hard drive crash is very stressful, when it happened to me I called up crying and in tears. I was treated with compassion and kindness which impressed me when first calling them. I only paid $440 and got my data back in a few days after another data recovery company told me it was not recoverable and had my hard drive for months. I'm glad I tried Payam Data Recovery before giving up. I have tears of happiness now! lol
James Gilbert
I am a reseller of this company. They do free quotes and have always gotten my clients data back
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!!!

I recently had a NAS server die on me, but remembering Payam's ad on radio i've decided to give them a go. Not only was the data recovered, including literally decades worth of family photos, I was just blown away by Payam's service and his ability to calm the customers who think they have lost all data. Payam is reliable, knowledgeable and diligent and this is one business that I will strongly recommend to others if they have lost valuable data. Thanks!

Many thanks for retrieving all photos deleted from an external hard drive. Your staff were calm and efficient in the face of great angst and retrieved a lifetime of memories. Thank you so much!
Alan O
My digital camera packed up while on a recent overseas holiday and I could not recover some 900 plus photos. I also made things worse by mistakenly re-formatting the card. Thanks to Payam Data Recovery they systematically and thoroughly retrieved 95% of my images in high resolution thereby saving many precious memories and amazing images. It cost a little but was well worth it. Thank you
Jill Natasi
I was told "external hard drive devices can easily get corrupted - especially if the hard drive is not ejected correctly" - but, in error, I did this and sure enough my external drive device died!! I went to Apple store where I purchased the device. They said "Sorry, bad luck, the data is corrupted, nothing can be done about it" I was desperate. I investigated Sydney Seagate service center and I tracked down Payam data recovery at North Sydney. I took my device there and within a couple of weeks and after paying a very reasonable cost, all my data had been recovered. Wow!! They achieved the impossible and at every step of the way, they were enormously understanding of my distress and enormously helpful in getting back to being fully operational. Thank you to all at Payam!
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.
Kathy Perry
The staff was very good and understanding.

Excellent service! Wes in Adelaide saved my whole hard drive! The recovery was quick and 100% of my data was saved to a new hard drive 🙂.

Payam recovered important data from a remote research expedition when an SD card split in 2. No other data recovery service were able to recover the data and Payam persevered for months until they were successful. We are very grateful and pleased.

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.

As a photographer and videographer, my external hard drives are my life! So when one of my harddrives died on me when I was completing a backup- I was a bit of a wreck. I had client's work on there that I had to recover. After taking it to a local computer repair place, I was disheartened when they told me they could not complete the job. Fortunately, however, they recommended Payam Data Recovery. As soon as I arrived, Craig carefully explained in detail their services and tactics to recover my content. I immediately felt reassured and went home feeling much more positive. Long story short- ALL of my data was recovered and I was able to finish my work! Hopefully I don't have to see Craig again, but if I do, I know I'll be in good hands. Excellent customer service and I have no hesitation recommending this business!!

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!
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
Brett Vincent
We are a small computer sales and repairs shop, which uses Payam to recover data from our customers hard drives when our tools and systems cannot. Their service is professional, and the thing I really like is that they kept me informed at all stages of the recovery. Best in class service.”
