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.

You guys did some recovery work for me and I would like to say thank you for your great work. The seed of your work was great and you helped me out on a great price. I would like to thank the team at reception for putting me at ease. Thank you again and I will recommend Payam Data Recovery to all that need recovery work done…….Thanks again

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 others had a go at recovery of my hard drive but failed I was very nervous, a lifetime of memories could be lost, Payam's reputation gave me some comfort but the feeling when I saw the first line of their email gave me much elation, We have some good news for you... I guess it can't work every time but it sure worked for me where others failed. Highly recommend them to recover your treasures if you are in the unfortunate situation I found myself in.

Thanks for your help. It had been done in a professional manner, quick &fast ! My customer was extremely happy as he got back all the data he wanted.
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!

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.
Sam Diep
I am happy to say that Gray Anderson, the person I dealt with from start to finish, was friendly and professional throughout the process. I was kept informed every step of the way. All the data was recovered promptly and without fuss. I would recommend Payam data recovery service to anyone who have hard-drive problem.

I had an old but reliable computer system which I depended on for years, for most of my programming tasks and research work. The processor is a Pentium II 100 MHZ, 8 MB RAM running windows 95 as the main operating system (responsible for booting) together with windows 3.11 for workgroups, with two HDD of 424 MB and 540MB capacity respectively. The two drives C (the master drive) and D were compressed using the MS compression program Drvspace which comes with Windows 95. The compression process yielded 4 drives: C as the master drive, D as the subordinate drive, together with two virtual drives H which is the host for C and G which is the host for D. The system was vigilantly protected and was not connected to the internet. The nightmare started during the completion stages of writing my M.Sc. thesis (the relevant data was stored on the D drive), the system crashed unexpectedly due to a physical problem with the master HDD C comprising some bad sectors. Subsequently the corruption led to the modification of the master disk partition tables, which in turn was interpreted by the BIOS in a manner that led to its failure in finding the system files within the booting sector. Accordingly, the booting process was constantly failing with the message DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER Moreover the data on the four drives was not visible! There was no joy at all, when trying to start the system using a system disk, and when running SCANDISK diagnostics on the C drive, there was the indication that the CVF (compressed Volume File) logical structure is intact, with no bad parts. i.e. the FAT, etc but the directories cannot be accessed, as the drive is dismounted, with the advice to mount the drive through installing Drvspace (already installed). A weak earlier to that event, I heard of PAYAM on the radio with the catching phrase We can recover data that is deemed by many as unrecoverable. Luckily on that day I wrote down their web address. I went to seek PAYAMs services regarding my computer problem. When I first got there, I was given a sheet of paper to describe the problem and list the most important directories to be recovered. I was asked to explain the problem orally as well to a very courteous and good listening member of the team. On that same day I was sent an e-mail by PAYAM, listing and explaining the various methods of advanced software recovery which is on offer, and the agreement terms involved. In few words, the PAYAM team was able to recover the entire data on all drives despite the complications arising from the compression procedure (the data had to be decompressed) and the outdated technology involved. What impressed me the most beside their technical prowess was their quick professional responsiveness to enquiries and questions during the period of recovery. During that duration, I was gravely worried to lose my valuable data, and had many questions and suggestions. A PAYAM team member usually communicated with me through e-mail or by returning my phone call, the very same day I raised an issue or had an inquiry. Moreover, on the recovery day, I had a very pleasant and informative chat with one of the team members regarding the most efficient backup methods and reliable storage devices. I am very satisfied with the result I got from the PAYAM team, I was able to recover data that took many years to collate. and which if lost would have been devastating. I would strongly recommend PAYAM recovery services to all my friends and colleagues when facing similar data recovery problems. I would also recommend them to everybody in need of their services, because from what I experienced, they are simply the best in their field.

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!
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.
Warren West
I recently had a failure of my hard drive containing about two year's data from my business. Thanks to Payam Data Recovery the data was recovered quickly and completely to minimise the disruption. I can only say that I would recommend Payam to anyone with a similar problem because of the efficient and friendly service they provided.
Alan Johnson
I was very pleased (and relieved) that Payam were able to recover all the data from my ‘dead’ external hard drive. A very quick and efficient service – thank you.

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.

OMG! I have just gotten back my lost files that were inadvertently deleted when we changed a mail server across recently …….. Now I was told that to recover a .pst or an .ost file was not possible ……Or highly unlikely to recover any useful data. Yes the guys at Payam data recovery had my PC for 10 days – but to look at the recovered files and see that 90% plus of my lost email data was recovered was extraordinary – yes 12 years of client communication was recovered from a hard drive and file type that shouldn’t of been recoverable.
These guys went not only an extra mile they circled the globe finding a solution to recover my lost data – the value of their work is far far outweighed by the cost of what I would of lost in client records. You would be stupid to allow anyone else to attempt to recover your precious data.
Paul Flood
Referred to Payam by Streetwise Mac Computer reseller with my HDD failure, and my crucial data with multimedia files was not backed up....... I found the Melbourne Manager Mark Gazzola very friendly, efficient and prompt in his service. Payam initially responded very quickly by email to my website query, and directed me to the St Kilda Rd Office for HDD drop-off. Phone follow-up to me was within 24 hours, and when I visited Payam's office, the matter was solved rapidly and Mark Gazzola showed me how to access the HDD to enable restoration, all at no charge!! Mark was even pro-active in prevention by suggesting that I organise at least duplicate external HDD back-ups, with both on and off-site storage. Great advice. Highly recommended for data recovery, and thanks again Mark and Payam.
Terri Bork
Payam provided a professional and prompt service in recovering data from my Macbook Pro which had been water damaged. Unlike some other companies, their quote was free and the fee was only payable if they successfully recovered the data.
Ruby Langsworth
They made it look all too easy! great service!
Rabia Din
I had lost my data after asking in Canada and Dubai none could do the job when I found Payam they did an excellent job for me I recovered more or less everything. I can't thank them any less as I had thought I won't ever be able to recover anything back. I had basically all the pics and videos if my son so I'm very happy to have recovered quite a bit thank you Payam they have lovely staff and lovely support they keep u posted at every stage what they are doing till the last moment which is very good thank you once again a very happy satisfied customer of yours I would definitely recommend you to many others!
Sarah M.
Very easy to deal with and very helpful staff. All my data was recovered.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Peter Reidy
Excellent service, kept me up to date along the process. Absolutely no pressure to pay unless satisfied. I had wiped nearly 1000's photos from my Eurotrip and they were able to recover the majority.. very glad I decided to get their help.
Paul Julian
It took a little time, but every moment was worth it. They were very professional and kept me posted along the line as to what was happening. Recovered all my data, allowed me to pay over instalments. Took a bad situation I created and made it better. Highly recommend for data recovery, these guys know their stuff.
Doug Smith
Excellent work achieved without delay. I thank you.
Joe Saxton
Was very surprised they were able to recover all my photos and files from a ocean-water damaged Galaxy Note. Very happy indeed
Murray Hobson
I had a failed 2TB portable drive and required the info from it as I had not recently backed it up. I went to Payam Data Recovery who recovered all my information and installed it onto a new portable hard drive. I was kept informed during the process and everything was smooth.
I cannot recommend Payam Data Recovery strongly enough for any data recovery that you require.
Daniel Matotek
Quality service center, it can be extremely expensive but if you are a business, use no other place these guys are true professionals
Daniel McLoughlan
I had a failed RAID pair and a backup drive that died in the same week - the perfect storm. Payam in Sydney recovered everything for a really reasonable cost.
Ian Jenkins
Just to let you know that my daughter was very happy with the data retrieval from her broken USB thumb drive. She said that at least 98% of the files were OK. There were a small number that were corrupted, most likely the ones that were open at the time that the computer and USB fell on the floor.
She has now made several back-ups! and said to thank you very much. She is very grateful.
Lesley Leong
Super efficient, reliable, supportive service provided to me with my data 2 TB hdd. I am very impressed with the service and support provided by Payam Data Recovery in particular Leigh and Kane. Leigh provided the best advice and support from Day 1 from dropping in my hard drive, to assessing it and giving me a response within 24 hours (with no charge). To delivering all my data back (which was so important to my business) and explaining every step of the way. I received all my data near to 100% full data and perfection within 6 business days. My hard drive had bad sectors and encryption errors. These guys are AMAZING. I went to another data recovery business prior to meeting Leigh and the team and did not get near the result I was looking for. Leigh and the team at Payam put me at ease that they are able to salvage my data and they did! Definitely recommend them to anybody who needs data recovery and please go to them first as there are no initial consultation fee and they have the best equipment to do the job in efficient time. Thanks guys! With much appreciation Lesley
Paula Tripp
Excellent service done by Wes. All data was recovered and saved to a new hard drive and completed in good time and returned to me. Only having to pay if able to recover data. Thank you.

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!

The guys did a fantastic job with recovering my data. When I lost my data so close to Christmas, I thought it was going to turn into a nightmare. It was refreshing to see the guys at Payam data recovery make the recovery of my data so easy. They took away all my worries, were honest with pricing, and put me back in control. I hope to never lose my data again, but if by some chance it happens again, I know where to go!! Good work guys!!
Dieter Jansen
A while back I had a PC which had a power supply failure that took out the motherboard, all adapters and all three hard drives. Payam took a look at the drives and indicated that with board-level repairs there was a good chance that all the data would be recovered and this is exactly what happened.
The data on the drives was useful but I didn't need it urgently so I took the economy service option.
Payam kept in touch regularly and all data was returned on a drive I supplied.
Very pleased with the service.
The cost of the service i s not trivial so I guess you have to weigh up the cost of the work with the value of the data and the likelihood of recovery but in my case the recovered data was worth much more to me than the cost of recovering it so I'm very happy.
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.

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.

Thanks Craig Nevans at PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd. I recently thought I had lost a lot of memories (photos) when the external hard drive I was using crashed. I thought I had backed up the photos but when I looked to find the backups I realised that they were not there. I was completely devastated, I thought I had lost the photos of grandchildren, friends, holidays. Hundreds of memories and photos that could not be replaced. I searched the web and found PAYAM in Melbourne. With my hard drive in hand, my husband, daughter and I drove to Melbourne. There at PAYAM we were greeted by the most wonderful person Craig Nevans, the customer service manager. Straight away Craig set our minds at ease, he was sympathetic,very supportive and completely understood our plight. Craig was wonderful to deal with. He didn't promise the world or that he could recover the data, however we went back home feeling very positive. As promised Craig emailed a few days later, they could recover the data at a very affordable price. A second email followed in a few days to advise they had recovered the data and they would, if we liked, ship the recovered data back to us on a well priced new hard drive, thus avoiding another trip to Melbourne. We were ecstatic to receive this email. I have no hesitation in recommending PAYAM to anyone looking for data recovery. They are the best in their field and wonderful people. If your hard drive crashes, don't panic contact PAYAM and talk to Craig and the team. Thanks again Craig
Maggie Sharp
The relief of hearing the news that most of my data had been recovered was huge! To potentially have lost the first three years worth of photographs of my children's life was heartbreaking but thank god, these guys managed to save it and I'm so grateful! Super professional and lovely customer service. I felt I was in good hands and I really appreciated the regular updates on how the work was progressing. Warmly recommend Payam!
Trevor Hewitt
My experience with the Payam was extremely satisfying. The service provided by the staff at Payam from my initial email enquiry and throughout the process was highly professional and exceeded my expectations of service. Staff responded promptly to emails and returning phone calls,regularly provided feedback regarding the progress of my data recovery and bent over backwards to assist me when I collected my recovered data and answered all my questions in layman's terms. Thank you to all.
Mark Irving
Awesome Job…Thanks!
Annie McIntosh
Very friendly very helpful successful recovery
David Pascoe
Thank you, totally happy.
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.
Tony B
Between Xmas and New Year the hard drive failed on my desktop pc and unfortunately I forgot to backup some very important business files. I contacted Payam and got a great quote and they were able to recover 100% of my data-all in less than a week of dropping the hard drive off. Very happy with the service provided by Kane-look no further if this happen to you-very professional service.
Kathy A
Inserting my USB into my computer it told me my files could not be recovered as my disk needed to be reformatted. Knowing that the USB contained valuable files I googled where I may go and decided to contact Payam to see if they could recover the files. It was the week before Christmas but I was provided with a quote the same day for the cost of the recovery. My files were returned at the time estimated for the recovery and there was a follow-up a few weeks later to see I was happy with the files recovered. While unfortunately not all of my files could be recovered (which is no fault of Payam) I was grateful for those that they managed to recover. I appreciated the professional service provided by Wes keeping me up-to-date on progress. I would have no problems recommending their service to others
Alex Okill
I had a burned out board on my desktop hard drive with 60Gb of data - they managed to repair the board and transfer to the data to my external drive and didn't do anything with the old drive until had confirmed that it was safe to do so.
I opted for the "economy" service which took around 3 weeks, however that was over the Christmas period too. Great service.
