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.

Thanks Payam you saved all my photos and music from the last 16 years. So grateful for your service as I was very upset at the thought of losing these memories. Always backup your backup
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.

Wes at Payam Adelaide was fantastic. After being told that there was no chance of recovering data from my corrupted of card from another data retrieval org, Wes promised he'd do his best. The next day, with little hope left, Wes delivered. So grateful!
Bernard Jones
These guys know what their doing. Was just going through life and then was faced with my other half loosing over five years worth of photography plus data, and then have the back up crash on the same night. Payam, Lachlan and the rest of the team persisted, ran multiple recoveries, providing updates on its progress and then retrieving 905 of the drive. Great achievement and great service
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.

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!

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 are excellent. My USB just stopped working for no reason at all. I sent it to the Laptop manand several other companies, however, none of them could help me get my data off it. I googled data recovery and Payam data recovery is the first web page came up. I liked what I seen and so I sent my USB away and was contacted with great news. payam data recovery recovered all of my files off my usb. The service was excellent. I was updated very regularly, they were quick and super friendly.You won't be disappointed with Payam.

Merlin the magician would be impressed Payam’s feat of data recovery. After being told by our IT staff to trash the hard disk as recovery would not be possible, Payam excepted the challenge and delivered 100% of my data back to usable. I went from feeling that my world had ended to jubilation when I strolled through all me files- thank you so much!
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!
Sam Krix
wow!
Janine Sabeh
The PAYAM Data recovery men are my IT hero's! l was given a quote within 24 hours and they even took the time to explain to me all my options. After being turned down by 3 other people Paolo Bileci saved the day and did so at a very affordable price! It just goes to show that not only are these men friendly and professional they are incredibly knowledgeable.
Don't waste your time/effort/money on anyone else PAYAM really are the best in the business!
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!
Anthony Stokes
I was so relieved when I found out you retrieved all the data to get my business up & running again.
I was recommended to you by Phillip Chen from Solutions 4, as he has referred others to you always with a positive outcome. I will not hesitate to use your service again if needed & will not hesitate to refer you to others.
Thank you again, you saved me!
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.

I got 100% of the data for 15 years from my broken HDD here. Thank you!
Ellise Myerson
I previously went to other shop. Terrible service and couldn't retrieve anything off my hard drive. The technician was also very unprofessional and rude. So glad I found Payam as they saved the day! They always gave me updates of the process and retrieved all my important documents

I recently lost important data on an external hard drive. I was referred to Payam by my IT department. They had no prior experience of them but sent me their contact details based on website information. I received prompt and kind service. I was listened to carefully, given realistic expectations of the recovery outcome and shown empathy in relation to my frustration. The parking and access facilitated the speedy service. I did not see anyone dressed like the image in the website. I experienced a highly professional service. Strongly recommend.
Mudassar Hafeez
An exceptional service, uncompromised quality, excellent customer service and job well done. Highly recommended. Don't go anywhere if need your data back at any cost. Just use Payam and sit back and relax 🙂
Keep up the good work team
MarieJ
I had my USB break on me in the most random of ways and it basically had my professional life saved on it! So after desperately calling a few computer places I found Payam and Craig in the Melbourne office was fantastic. He kept me up to date with the process and he managed to recover almost everything! Was fabulous! I couldn't ask for a better result. Some of you may be put off by the pricing, but honestly once you get back all of your data, you won't even think about it!! Highly recommend Payam!!
Laura Le Mercier
Such a relief to have all of my precious memories returned! Looked around at quite a few places, and no one said they could do it. Was heartbroken, until Payam said they could do it. Thank you Payam!
Leon Silver
I was very happy with your work. You were fast, efficient and good value. I will certainly use you next time.
Rebecca Freiberg
I was very happy with the data recovery work performed!
Johann Kruse
Mike and the rest of the Payam team were awesome… they really saved the day when they recovered all of my baby photos/videos after both my NAS and cloud backup failed. Super happy with the service.
Sam Joseph
My wife's boss recommended Payam to me when our small business server crashed. We lost 5 years of invoices and accounting info without any backup. I called and Wes was very helpful on the phone and when i dropped it off in the city i spoke with Gray. Everyone was really helpful and told me the costs upfront. I got everything back for less than i expected in a week. Great service from a company i hope i will never need to use again, i am backing up religiously now.
Kathy Perry
The staff was very good and understanding.
Brad Flowers
Excellent fast and friendly help – life saving

Extremely happy thanks, was very upset when i thought i couldn’t get this data back as it was 7 years of home movies and important work files, i researched on google and everyone said there was nothing i could do to get past the WD encryption without the chip from my damaged case. It cost less than i thought and it was all done extremely quickly, I’m thankful I gave you guys a go and definitely going to recommend you to anyone that has the same issue.

I had a Seagate drive that was a replacement for a different Seagate drive that failed under warranty, also fail after less than a year. I immediately unplugged it, and did some websearching and found PAYAM Data Recovery. I gave them a call, brought my drive down. Turned out the heads had crashed, and it was sent to "The Clean Room" . As the data on it wasn't desperately needed, but I did want it recovered, I took the slow option. Upon examination, it was the heads, but the platters were undamaged. PAYAM reconstructed the drive and was able to recover ALL the data and put it on a brand new drive.
When I had a bit of confusion about payment/return method, it was explained, I paid and the drive was back to me 4 days after
I have a few static glitches on very few of the media files, but they work. Now, I know not all data recovery jobs have this great of an outcome, but considering what the cost of the loss of data would have been, in time and money to rebuild, it was well worth the cost.
As for "slow" method, my drive was fixed in under a month and returned. Definitely recommend PAYAM.
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.

Having decided to back up my hard drive externally "when I just get these couple of things up to date" Murphy's Law intervened, and I was left with no access to all my business and tax information. Panic search of Google led me to Payam Data Recovery. A phone call to Craig and an explanation of what had happened left me with SOME hope, so I sent off the recalcitrant drive by express post, and waited for the prognosis with some trepidation. I need not have worried. Craig contacted me very promptly, outlined my options, and within a short time, I had new internal and external hard drives, and access to ALL my data.
I live in a very small town, and when dealing with businesses by telephone I'm accustomed to having to ring several times, be shunted from one person to the next, explain the problem several times to different people, and end up with very little if any satisfactory results, so I particularly appreciated Craig's promptness, honesty, and the excellent service he delivered. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him and his team.

Not cheap but you get the quality recovery service you pay for.
Pauline Chegg
Payam is an excellent service for recovery of data with damaged devices. The staff are professional and service is prompt . The establishment Is geared to customer satisfaction
James McIvor
Payam was recommended by Apple and I was thoroughly satisfied with the service and outcome. I was able to recover my precious memories at a reasonable price

My business consists of many training programs which are in PPT format. Being too busy to back up files I was faced with the inevitable when I experienced a major disc crash. Many people I spoke with, both in Australia and in Hong Kong, told me that it was a lost cause to get the information back. Not Payam. They were able to recover almost all of my information and I am incredibly grateful to them for the service they offer. Lesson 1. Backup all data Lesson 2. If the situation does go snafu get in touch with Payam
Dan Wright
Very easy to deal with and reliable company. All my work was quoted quickly and accurately, no surprises at the end of the job and they were able to get all of my data back from some very old hard drives. Highly recommend using their services.
Ziata Guitars
This company, Payam, is fantastic. They recovered all my data within the week and the service was impeccable. I was well informed throughout the whole process of how my job was progressing and since this was the first time I had to use this type of data recovery service this gave me peace of mind. The technician, Wes, at Payam, was very professional and his communication with me was perfect via telephone and email answering all of my questions thoroughly. I highly recommend using Payam for data recovery as my experience with this company was excellent. They turned a potential data lost nightmare into a pleasant experience, what more can you ask. Thanks guys, great job!
Ross.W
What can I say about Payam. Excellent, fantastic, specialized in their field. These are few that come to mind. This is the second time I have called upon their services and once again they have proved why they are a leading data recovery business. They have knowledge and expertise to explain why the hard drive had failed and the recovery of the lost files is second to none. Once again thank you for your work. I think this time I will take your advice and do a backup just in case. Thanks Keith.
Devan Massey
Thanks to Payam I've been able to recover photos I haven't seen for years! They were on an old laptop hard-drive and I didn't expect to set anything, but they managed to get it all. Service was also much quicker than expected.

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"

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.
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.
Kane Mcervale
My company was recently unfortunate enough to have one of our hard disks fail. Unfortunately, this caused our back up drive to corrupt also, and the result was a loss of months of work. Mark and the team at PAYAM successfully retrieved ALL of our precious data, and provided top-notch service along the way. I was thrilled (and relieved) with the result. Thanks for your patience and attention to detail guys

Wes from Payam Adelaide was unbelievable. Explained everything and saved our CF Card containing a video job that we couldn't replicate. Amazing. The price was spot on and the service level was first class. Thanks so much!! Your saved our data and our lives
