About a year ago my younger sister passed away, and a lot of pictures of us were on a hard drive I accidentally put on wrong power supply and burn the PCB. Never really went into recovery, because why should I, is not that it was critical for me. After I lost her, I wanted to recover the images of us as young kids. The website was very clear, and their reviews substantial in my choosing to take my drive here. The team was very friendly and offered great advice. The picture I recovered are worth so much more than I payed. Thank you!
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.

After a new Samsung 850 Pro SSD got corrupted while I was downloading files to my Mac, Craig and Vinh in Melbourne came to the rescue and recovered 340GB worth of files that I thought I'd lost forever. It was an absolute life saver as these were critical files needed for a video job I'd just completed for an important client and the thought of a reshoot was not something I really wanted to contemplate. The knowledge and customer service was exceptional. I'd recommend Payam in a heartbeat

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!

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!

Amazing! We had a corrupted SD card with a month of travel video - they helped us retrieve it all and mailed it to our next hostel. Very professional and service minded personnel.
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’m very happy with the data recovery work done. Overall, it was a great service provided and I will definitely recommend it to others.
After my hard drive had crashed i initially thought the recovery of lost data would come easy, but soon found out this was not the case. after months of failed attempts and non return phone calls and emails from some other company's i heart about payam data recovery through the radio. the one company i should have dealt with from the beginning, the service and the knowledge the company showed me was great. i am now happy to have 100% of my data recovered and a company i know i can trust if anything had to happen in the future.
Mitch Graham
The staff was friendly and very professional. The most amazing part is they delivered as promised.
One day I discovered that I wasn't able to open photos and iTunes music from my external hard drive. It had corrupted. I tried a number of downloaded applications that colleagues had used to retrieve data. Unfortunately they didn’t work for me. PAYAM were close by and did a good professional job. They were able to retrieve all my lost data for me.

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.
Emma Burnard
Very professional and efficient. They recovered important data that other shops could not do

I called on Payam after I had accidentally reformatted my windows XP computer hard drive and loaded on a Linux partition. WIth thousands of vital files lost I immediately sought quotes from a number of data recovery firms in operating in Brisbane. Payam were the first to respond to my email enquiry and through their email and subsequent phone call gave me the confidence to proceed with them for the difficult recovery task. At all times the Payam staff were very courteous and professional in their dealings with me and were ably to recover virtually all the required data. I have no hesitation in recommending Payam for your data recovery needs.
Tia Bates
A huge thank you to Paolo for recovering my severely water damaged iPhone! also the team at Payam was very professional, kind and awesome... so refreshing! After being told by two other technicians that there was no hope... Payam found a way!!! Paolo you must be acknowledge 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!! Thank you so much! with warmth

I was extremely happy with the services provided by Payam data recovery. Expectation were set perfectly and data was recovered and received promptly.
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.
Katherine Pearce
So impressed, not only were they able to recover all my data but they are extremely professional. For free, they quoted me a price within a day and took into account my student status. Additionally, they showed me how to access all the recovered data and called me back a week later to see if everything was alright. Don't bother with mac medic or apple care, Payam Data Recovery is definitely the way to go!
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!
Roxanne Wiseman
My hard drive died and Payam managed to recover all my precious photos. Super quick and great service!! Thank you so much
Heather Donovan
Was really thrilled that Payam were able to recover all my data from my broken hard drive. This was done in a really timely manner and I would recommend this company to everyone who was in the same dilemma. Would most definitely use them again.
Stanley Armstrong
Payam really delivered exceptional service in what was a very critical situation for me. A lifetime of photos were gone as were all my accounting records. They retrieved all my data in a timely manner with professionalism. Highly recommend! A++++!!
Ali Macmood
I am extremely happy with the service I received and outcome of the data recovery. In addition, your staff also recommended an appropriate Synology solution for future backups at home.
Shelly L.
A simple storage device, which had worked faultlessly for a few years, decided soon after our recent office move that it was not going to boot up again. Having allowed our backup regime to fall behind by a few months, this meant a significant amount of important business data was inaccessible. Tech support from unitas manufacturer (when finally available) gave us great confidence the unit could be re-started in various ways but no confidence the data on the drive would survive the exercise. Their recommendation was Payam. of course payam was able to quickly and cost-effectively retrieve all of the data on the disk. However it was the way Craig conducted himself, without a hint of smugness or judgement, that was most impressive. The team at Payam are clearly very knowledgeable and highly skilled in this field, but at no stage were we made to feel ignorant or deficient. The whole process was carefully described, then quoted, and communication all through the exercise was timely and professional. We would have no hesitation in recommending payam, they're far better at their job than we are at backing up.
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!
Brenden
Sent them my thumb drive and got it back with all data recovered within a week. Keith was brilliant and took the time to go through what was recovered prior to me paying.
I had actually sent my thumb drive to Technetics Data Recovery a month earlier. Got some crap story about it being difficult to recover and wanted to charge me in excess of $1500 to recover 10 Power Points.
Payam were quicker, more engaged and a 1/4 of the price.
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
Elizabeth Whittle
Great. They helped me out of a spot and were nice to deal with.
Kenneth George
I have used Payam's services for years and I have never been disappointed.
Adam S
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!

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.

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

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!

Efficient service, prompt, easy to deal with, understood customer needs, reasonable prices. Will recommend your service in the future.
Jamie Dela Rosa
I was very satisfied with the job that you guys did. It was quick, easy, helpful and accommodating. As a full-time student, I greatly appreciated the plan of payment I was put on that was offered to All my files were recovered from my drive and I can’t really be any happier. Thank you.
Craig Lawton
This data recovery completed was for our business’s server. So far it appears to have been 100% successful. Many thanks for saving us months of recovery time.
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!
Tony Peters
Our internal IT team could not recover the data from my hard drive and mentioned you guys as someone who might be able to help out.
You did a great job and on time.
Donna Bonnel
They did a great job recovering all my files. What a relief!! Very glad I found Payam. Happy Customer 🙂
Ceasar Joseph
The best customer service I have had for years. Caring, helpful and they went the extra mile to reassure me when I was freaking out after my server crashed. RAID-5 data recovery was done faster than expected. Happy to refer you to my friends.
Joy Wu
With so much to do one recent night, I spoilt things by plugging laptop into external hard drive powerpack, and vice versa. The laptop survived, but I lost a lifetime of records on the 640 Gb drive. The local IT guys in Vanuatu weren't able to help recover any, however my IT friend Terry Carlot recommended sending it to Payam in Brisbane. I contacted them, and from then on, with Payam Greg Gill's help, it seemed life was worth living again. The data recovery work was done quickly and contact kept up. I appreciated Greg's manner, the efficiency of data recovery as well as the chance to buy economically a new larger drive to store that data, and the returning the drive to me by the alternative means I requested. Thanks for the good work, Payam.
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!
V Kinetic
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.
David F.
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.
Angus Keenan
Great customer service, and work time. When my sever crashed and looked to have lost my thousands of hours worth of work... They worked their magic and got 100% of my files back! Highly recommended! Great start to the week!!
Eric Chen
I am happy with the overall service and definitely will use again and recommend to people who need the service.
Grant Molik
The work you did was amazing and I can’t thank you enough, If it wasn’t for you guys I wouldn’t have valuable photos. Appreciate it a lot.
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.
Tess
I'd recently crashed my MacBook Pro and thought i had lost all data in my computer. I brought it over to Apple Store and Mac Centric, both of whom could not help me and suggested that I may not be able to retrieve my data anymore. The latter of whom however, suggested that I would need to go to a an experienced data recovery team and try my luck there. I then recalled my sister (having lost all her photos from an overseas SD card that she bought during her Europe trip) bringing her SD card to PAYAM, after many trial and errors through different data recovery team companies in Sydney. They eventually were the only ones able to retrieve her precious photos again. So i decided to take my computer to PAYAM, and within a day I received a more than reasonable quote which i was not obliged to pay a cent of unless i was 100 percent happy with their work. Not only are they an expert at data retrieval, but their customer service is excellent, which is certainly helpful when you are already distressed. PAYAM are an informative, efficient & reliable company, and i recommend them to anyone who needs their computer back on track again. Thank you so much for your help and fantastic customer care.
