Recently, one of my barristers' computer went for a 'swim' whilst on holidays. He did not have back up and was quite distressed. I had an IT person have a look and they said it required professional data recovery. I then contacted Payam and sent the hard drive over. A representative rang me back the same day and asked various questions and said I would receive a quote and an idea of the amount of data, if any, that could be recovered. The next day I was contacted and advised that 'most, if not all' the data could be recovered and for a very reasonable fee. I was also asked what I wanted done with the defective hard drive i.e. returned or destroyed and if wanted to purchase a storage device or would prefer to provide same. I was able to collect the defective hard drive and storage device within two (2) days of the delivery to them. I am more than happy to recommend PAYAM who provide an excellent, efficient and personalized service to distressed customers by keeping the customers informed all through the process. Thank you once again for all help.
I recently lost around 850Gb of data on my external hard drive through a crash/corruption, data which consisted of both business and personal data compiled over a period of ten years. I was absolutely devastated when I thought I'd lost it all, because most of it was either irreplaceable or replaceable only through thousands of hours work sourcing it from a wide range of external and internal areas
My computer IT guy in Sydney (A Little Help Computing Services) recommended Payam Data Recovery and whilst one of our businesses is based in Sydney, I live in Melbourne, which is where the disaster occurred. I was very pleasantly surprised when he advised that Payam also had an office in Melbourne, where I met Craig Nevans
Craig was great to deal with, very personable, friendly and efficient, and I am ecstatic that Payam have been able to recover the majority of my data. I have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending their services!

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 dropped my laptop and subsequently damaged the physical HDD. I was referred to Payam Data Recovery by PLE computers in Wangara, Perth W.A. I dealt with Samantha of the Payam data recovery team in Perth and she was so helpful in explaining the process and costs involved to recover all of the data from my damaged drive. PDR had the data recovered in less than 2 weeks and I'm astonished as to the speed of the recovery and of the professional and helpful manner in which I was treated. I would definitely recommend Payam data recovery for everyone that has any data loss issues

My hard drive fell off a desk last week. After talking to 2 other data recovery labs - Payam was the most helpful on the phone. They were the only company who gave me a fixed price and were recommended by Western Digital in New Zealand.

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.

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.

Fast Prompt and delivered what other companies said was impossible! High Recommended. I have been recommended their service to everyone in a similar situation. Can't fault their service.
My company (SME) had a major server crash, which meant all of our data on both server HDD's was corrupted or lost. We also found to our surprise and horror that our backups hadn't been functioning properly since a previous server issue late last year- so we only had project and company data up to that point and nothing from November to March. I Googled 'data recovery' and went with the reviews I read. I contacted the Payam team who were very professional and efficient from the outset. They gave me a straightforward and honest assessment about the chances of recovering the data, but I always felt they would do everything possible to recover it. Thankfully they were able to recover everything for us...sigh of relief....and we have also established a new back-up policy/test process!! I would have no hesitation in recommending Payam for this service- very impressed.

They did a great job recovering all my files. What a relief!! Very glad I found Payam. Happy Customer 🙂

I used to work in IT. I'm the guy people (still) come to when they lose their data. I recently did a wedding on a professional SLR, recorded to a compact flash card (very reliable). Somehow, I managed to corrupt my FAT32 partition and corrupt the entire card. I only know that because PAYAM told me. I thought I had busted the hardware - the electronic internals. PAYAM are an honest company, no doubt about it. They charged very, very reasonably considering my circumstances, and they got onto the job faster than they had to. My data was successfully recovered, and my client did not even need to know I had an issue. My reputation is safe because of this company. Rock on.
John Stericker
I have used Payam a number of times and they have always been friendly, accommodating to my needs, and best of all, successful!
Even when we accidentally deleted some family photos off an external hard drive (they weren't even in the recycle bin) Payam recovered all the photos.
Vinny Corey
What looked like a hopeless case when strip hard drives failed, was turned around, and for a reasonable price all data was recovered - well over 200 GB. Well done!
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.
Maria Vatos
A HUGE thank you to Paolo for recovering my severely water damaged iPhone! Also the to team at Payam for their professionalism, kindness and awesome service......so refreshing! After being told by two other technicians that there was no hope......Payam found a way!!! Paolo you must be acknowledged 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!!! I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery Specialists! Amazing!!!
Thank you so much!
With Warmth

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
Gaynor Macdonald
Payam recovered almost all my data from an external hard drive - after I had two hard drive crashes in one week. They tried hard but couldn't do the same for a friend so I know how hard they work to make this happen. In both cases, they were excellent to work with, professional and courteous - how all business should be conducted.
Geofdecan
Great service and end result using wes at Payam. Will recommend and use again if needed!
Brad Cann
Friendly staff, perfect services. My 500GB hdd has MBR corrupted and I tried couple of recovery software but unsuccessful. I brought it to Payam Data Recovery with very little hope but they help me to recover everything. I would recommend this service to my friends.
Emjay P.
My experience with Payam Data Recovery was Fantastic!!!! I dropped my iphone a few weeks ago and all data was gone. Brought iphone to Payam and got a call after a few hours saying it's ready to be picked up. I was very happy!
Piotr Sawi
Fantastic, professional and efficient service. I got a quote for unreadable disk data recovery the next day after delivering disk to the North Sydney Office. The disk belonged to one of my clients which came out of G5 mac and contained all the billing information of my client including outstanding accounts for over $30000 so they didn't know who to chaise for payments. Sure you can find cheaper services in Sydney or post your hdd overseas but would/could you risk it? In my case the answer was NO so I gave it to the best data recovery people I knew - PAYAM. I was not mistaken. The disk clone would not boot in a Mac due to damage caused by hard drive failing for a period of time and trashing system files but all the accounting data I needed was recovered 100%. Client was very happy and I was very happy too. Don't risk it. Leave it with Payam.

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.

Payam Data Recovery provides a great service when important data has been lost. I've used them a number of times while repairing PCs and servers for people. On each occasion Payam have recovered the data of damaged hard drives. If needed, they have worked through the night and returned data quickly. While it is not a service that you 'want' to use, if you 'need' data recovery, then Payam will help.
Josh Dalt
Highly recommend Payam Data Recovery.
Craig was professional and extremely helpful, all of my data was recovered and I was kept informed throughout the whole process.
Don't think twice if you have a dead drive with lost information, Craig and his team will have it restored with little fuss and at a reasonable price.
Marcos J.
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!!
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.

I stored all my photos on a 500gb external hard drive (a normal pc hard drive in an external casing). At least 2-3 years worth of personal, travel, and assignment photos. When my hard drive broke down, I thought I had lost all those precious memories and assignment work. It was powering up but just made a spinning sound and wouldn't get recognised by my computer. I quickly jumped online and googled 'hard drive data recovery' and called 2 other companies before PAYAM. The other companies weren't too helpful. Then I spoke with Craig Nevans from PAYAM over the phone. Craig was very helpful and asked me a few questions about what the hard drive was doing when I kept trying to turn it on. Craig then gave me a solution to try before bringing my hard drive in - to connect it directly to the pc as the external power supply in the casing might be faulty. He was spot on with the faulty power supply in the casing. My computer even recognised that the drive was there but the data was not readable. So I called Craig again and he suggested I bring it in for testing. When I arrived at PAYAM, the service from Craig was fantastic. He gave me a breakdown of the whole process, prices and estimate of the time it would take. I also had to be on a plane back to London in a few days. During and after the testing of my hard drive, Craig kept me up to date constantly via email and phone over the next couple of days. He was able to recover all my photos and files that were on my hard drive, all before I had to go overseas. Excellent and professional service from Craig. Thanks heaps Craig! I highly recommend PAYAM Data recovery!!

They rescued my waterlogged data in no time. Great work
Leon Ure
Payam managed to recover nearly all of my files, including non-generic formats, after the corrupted HDD was formatted and then another HDD was cloned over the top of it. I highly recommend Payam!
Klaus H.
We use Payam to recover data for our clients. They have never failed to deliver results.
Tony Robbis
Clear, thorough and friendly communication throughout the process. They listened carefully to my needs and successfully recovered data for the lowest cost possible and in good time. Very impressive service.
Shane Crawford
I was most impressed with the customer service, the professionalism, knowledge, and the training and education provided by Kevin Harris.
“Kevin me immediately, listened to my problem, advised generally what the problem could be, and the possible difficulties that I could face. Kevin understood my urgency and how it important it was to our business that the data be retrieved.
Kevin, immediately set about identifying the problem, which he did in approximately 10 minutes and explained the process and procedure that was necessary to attempt to retrieve our information. Kevin, is very knowledgeable and was most communicative and really helpful. He also explained how hard drives work, how to protect use them correctly. We had a 100% successful data recovery and I cannot explain how delighted and impressed I am.
The job was completed within a very short time frame and I was kept abreast of all developments all the way through. I will be looking to purchase another hard drive shortly, and will now only deal with Payam Data Recovery. I had a fantastic customer service experience with Kevin who is simply excellent at what he does.

My life was on my external hard drive and when it wouldn't open I felt sick! I found Payam on an internet search and posted off my problem. My lack of a back up drive cost me, but I am very thankful that Payam recovered everything.
Max Rarates
I was so glad my data was all good once I got it back from Payam, Thank you for retrieving my data!
Tania Pickering
“I was really happy. I will recommend you guys!

Elly Hurley
I recently had a need to use Payam Data Recovery as my Mac crashed partway through an update and my Time Machine Backup would not mount! It was panic stations all round - years of photo's, emails and other data that wasn't in Dropbox potentially erased...
Luckily I chose Payam Data Recovery to recover the data from my Time Capsule. Keith and Payam were brilliant, they were quietly confident from the outset they could get my data back, and they did. Not only did they provide me with all the data in folders I could use, they were able to get the SparseBundle onto another disk - so I effectively got all of my data back. I would highly recommend this company for any data recovery you need. They are professional and understanding of the emotional needs of someone that's facing a potential disaster. Thank you Payam and Keith, so pleased to have found you
Frederick Palmer
Three other data recovery experts failed to repair my SD memory card but Payam was able to do a chip off recovery which nobody else tried and they got all of my honey moon photos back. My wife and I will never forget you - you are amazing
Alex Giangrasso
Recovered data from my water damaged (destroyed) Samsung Galaxy S6 3 weeks after the damage occurred. Amazing service
Ria Claassens
Really happy with the data recovery work you guys did for me, so very grateful I got my data back. Thank you so very much, will be backing everything up in the future.
After my laptop suffered death by drowning I was scared that I had lost all my work files. Advertisements, stock control forms, rosters, financial records, everything was kept on there. A family member recommended PAYAM as they had done some work for him and he was very impressed. I went In and spoke the them and they had a look for me. That day I had a response that they could get my data back no problems, and for a great price. Their service was very prompt and professional with clear communication throughout the whole operation.I definitely recommend PAYAM for data recovery services and they will be the first that I turn to if it ever happens again. Thanks guys.

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.
Su Johnson
Very happy with Payam’s services. Tried the local IT shop, useless! Next time will go straight to Payam.

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!! 🙂
Matthew Perovic
Great service and fast. High success rate on recoveries!
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!
Robert Gepford
Payam and the team brought my dead drive back to life and at a very reasonable price! Friendly, straight-forward and recovered all of my data in the time frame they promised.
Joel Ricci
We recently had our hard drive crash on our server at work!! Payam data recovery were magnificent!! They retrieved all our data in a fast turnaround. We would highly recommend them to anyone!!
