I am very happy with the service and the professional manner. Especially that I wasn’t slugged an exorbitant price when you guys knew you had me by the Sh&Curls. I will recommend you back to Glencore who sent me to you.
Amanda Brady
Thank you for your assistance with recovering my data. Your expertise and professionalism certainly got me out of a pickle! Thank you again I will definitely recommend you to anyone in need of data recovery!

My lacie external hard disk drive crashed for no explicable reason after 2 years of constant use. Having an old laptop, i was using the lacie as primary data storage space. So it had all the photos of my two year old from birth to present. i backed it up 6 months ago to a new WD external drive, but 6 months is a lot of photos. I googled lacie drive data retrieval and saw Payam was in brisbane. The cost range was $250 to $2500 so i was terrified that my problem might turn out to be a tough one. i called the guys on monday and took it in. I didn't have to pay anything up front. By thursday they gave me the news that yes full data retrieval was likely. The cost was only going to be $250 for their regular service!!! i was wrapped. They said regular meant that they would get to it when they could so it could be a couple of weeks (which didn't worry me). the guys turned it around in a couple of days and i dropped in a new HDD for them to load it up and away i went. 1 very happy customer.

I have used Payam Data Recovery twice now and both times they recovered all my data, Once when my USB failed and again when my hard drive failed. I was very very pleased and happy. I definitely would recommend Payam.
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.

Hi, I went to access some photos from my Samsung S5 and they had disappeared. There were so many of my grandchildren and I was devastated. I did some research and found Payam, and as they were in Adelaide decided to give them a go, didn't have anything to lose and all to gain. Fabulous, Wes was great, all photos recovered and I am so very happy. Will, and have already recommended you guys to anyone who will listen
Stephen Pittman
Given the nature of my requirements – family photos/personal files that weren’t time sensitive, but absolutely precious – I am very happy with the result, which was a 99.8% recovery – AWESOME!
Verity Coates
I will shout it from the roof tops as to how happy I was with my experience with you. I had lost data from two USB’s which had graduation photos, overseas trips and my father in law who has since passed away.
I had been to three other companies who did not want to know me but fortunately one put me onto you. Your staff was very professional friendly and extremely helpful. The great news is that all photos and videos were retrieved to my absolute delight. Thank you ever so much. I have already sung your praises to my friends.

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!

Upon discovering Payam online, and experiencing issues with the manufacturer of the external hard drive, I was reluctant that the data on my device would ever be recovered.
Payam took the time to explain step by step the process, and showed visibility the whole way through.
A special thank you to Lachlan and Keith for all their help and assistance.
I have no trouble in recommending Payam to anyone that has a faulty device and is in need of recovering the valuable data.
Alex Huang
These guys are truly lifesavers! Our laptop hard disk suffered accidental impact and the file allocation table was messed up, tried a few other contractors before and no one could help.
We came across Payam when researching on the web, and sure enough, true to their word, they provided the best service ever. Delivered on what they said they would and all our important data were recovered for a very reasonable cost!They are simply amazing, couldn't recommend them enough. Truly the best data recovery team in Australia. Kudos to Mark and the team in Melbourne! Mark is very gracious and helpful. He and his team really make the world a better place to live. I really do mean it. We are really really grateful that there is Payam Recovery Data Centre in Melbourne as I can't imagine if our data cannot be recovered.
Keep up the good job, Payam! God bless you. A++ Grade for quality and customer service.

I got 100% of the data for 15 years from my broken HDD here. Thank you!
Ross Smith
Further to your email regarding the data recovery job you undertook for me, I want to say a huge thank you to everyone involved. Your persistence, skill and professionalism in recovering my data is very much appreciated. While the timeframe blew out and the effort required to recover the data proved to be much more than was expected, you billed me what you initially quoted and kept me informed throughout the process. Thank you again.
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.
Ruby Langsworth
They made it look all too easy! great service!
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

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!!
Matthew Perovic
Great service and fast. High success rate on recoveries!
Liz Pemberton
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 Centres 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 & enormously helpful in getting back to being fully operational. Thank You to all at Payam!
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
Sundar Rama
We had a recent hard drive crash on a Linux Server. The data contained images from a weather station located in a remote part of Papua New Guinea for the past 18 months. Kevin and his team were most helpful in recovering the data in full, apart from the minor hiccup where our hard drive caused their PC to start smoking too ! Very professional.
Seaneen
Payam's service was wonderful, I thought I had lost all my backup but they came to my rescue.
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!
Glynnis Hearn
I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery Services. Reasonable prices, very professional and clear about the process and payment required if data recovered successfully. Very, very happy to have all our data recovered. Thanks Payam Team.
Stephen Brewer
Successfully unlocked my old HTC phone. So happy old photos were recovered. Service is very quick and price is reasonable. Will definitely use your company again when needed.
Bricks Branham
Fantastic! Payam assessed the problem, recovered all the missing files within the time frame and was able to get on with life again. Great friendly service.
Kircy Jong
The service was extremely reliable and took the time to explain the problem as well as the solution. Very accommodating and friendly. Would definitely recommend.
Renee Moroz
Don't go anywhere else- come straight here! quick turn around and reasonable rates. Plus they are happy to send the recovered data to you in the post for a minimal fee!!! thanks a million for saving our kids memories 🙂
I had a 1TB HDD with Music and 10 years worth of photo's...the loss would have been devastating. I took the HDD to PAYAM and a day later all my data was recovered. Great service and eager to please. *** Thank You ***
Michael Clarke
After my kids knocked my external hard drive off my desk it hit the ground really hard. I thought everything was gone after my local computer techie could not help. I'm glad i Googled for data recovery and found Payam. They were in the city and got everything back in a few days. Very calm and good listeners when i was so stressed out.
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!!!
Sam Heylen
One happy customer! My wife's iPhone suddenly crashed and having not been backed up in over a year we thought we had lost all of her photos, videos etc including baby photos of our 3rd child. Apple said there was nothing we could do except try a data recovery place. Payam were fantastic from whoa to go. They recovered all the data and even provided an iTunes backup of the phone. Couldn't recommend them more highly. Thanks guys
Aziza Ibrahim
Really appreciated the work you did for me and recovering the data on the hard drive.
It contained photos of the first two years of my son’s life and with no other copies and backups of these at the time (I’ve since learnt my lesson) I was grateful for your service and success in recovery most of these precious memory.
Greatly appreciated and highly recommended.
Venky
Thanks Payam, for your amazing recovery. I can't believe that a data out of USB stick that was quite damaged could be recovered in less than 48 hours.
From the beginning of time during the submission of my USB stick, and till you gave me a new stick with recovered data, you guys showed complete100% customer service. Kudos to your team.
No words!
Many Thanks

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.
Blair Harkness
Very happy with the service and result I received from the Auckland office of Payam. Very pleasant staff too. Fairly expensive, but a lot of time was involved, and I bought a new drive at a good price.
Trudi Tomlinson
Very happy with service.
Su Johnson
Very happy with Payam’s services. Tried the local IT shop, useless! Next time will go straight to Payam.
Eric Fariss
After visiting an apple store and learning my Macbook Pro had bad sectors I researched data recovery and tried Payam. They have managed to recover every file I needed, Including more than 2000 priceless photographs. I highly recommend them.
Gary Phau
Super Service! The team managed to recover ALL of the data on my two hard drives which crashed simultaneously on one weekend. Some of the data was precious photos which are irreplaceable.
Was kept up to date on what was happening and the data was recovered within the timeframe promised. The cost was very reasonable and I'm happy with every part of the process. Well done to Mark and Craig for your excellent service and professionalism - I can and will definitely be recommending your services!
Eric Chen
I am happy with the overall service and definitely will use again and recommend to people who need the service.

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

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.
Brenda Jason
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
Denis Wade
Recently I had a Netgear ready NAS bite the dust. A software glitch broke my 4x4TB RAID 5 array and I was scared to have lost the lot. Craig from Payam took on the task of virtually recreating the RAID 5 array and was 100% successful. All of my data was intact as if nothing happened. After supplying him with a 10TB drive. All data was transferred and safely recovered within a few days. I am so glad I found this company. Craig was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Kind, friendly and very professional. Thank you so much for your service and your ongoing advice. RAID is redundancy only, I now have my photos all backed up onto multiple drives and google storage cloud. I cannot thank you enough! Kind regards
James Farina
Payam Data are amazing. They recovered the birth of my daughter on DVD. They made my day, It was like winning the lotto. I am ever so grateful for their amazing work. Thank you! Thank you!
Stephen Todd
My hard disc crashed and I lost everything. I took it to my local computer business that I deal with and they were unable to retrieve any of the disc contents. I had not backed up the disc for the past 8 months or more and had all of my work files as well as family photo's and important emails that were lost. I sent the disc to PAYAM and they were able to retrieve all of the contents completely and at an extremely reasonable price. I had trouble retrieving one of the hidden files as I have limited knowledge in that area. I rang Kevin at PAYAM and he walked me through the steps that enabled me to access the file and retrieve the information. I found their service, advice and help to be excellent and would highly recommend them.
I thought four years of work, and thousands of beloved photos, had gone down the drain when my hard drive stopped working. I contacted Payam and was immediately at ease. He is highly professional and has the knowledge and confidence to provide a realistic assessment of the situation and yet make you feel positive knowing that whatever can be done will be done. With many corrupt sectors – Payam and his team certainly had their work cut out for them. Payam and his team came through for me, as I’m sure he has for many many others. Thanks Payam and team! - Paul

During May 2009 I was attempting to complete my HSC year at school. Being a student who uses a laptop all my work files for the previous 4 years, including the entirety of my Preliminary HSC and what I had so far done of the HSC, were stored on my computer. Hence you could imagine my horror when I attempted to turn on my Laptop only to find it wasn’t possible to access any of my notes. After a month of differing computer technicians attempting to recover the files I was eventually directed to Payam. Within 24 hours I got the phone call saying they had isolated the problem and offered with a quote to move forward, due to the important nature of my files I immediately moved forward and despite not asking for the express service my files were recovered within the week. On top of this Payam then proceeded to sell me and exceptionally cheap and high quality Seagate external hard drive. This has since ensured that not only are all my notes accessible to me but they are also backed up to avoid this problem happening again. - Jack Thorburn"
