“My network attached storage recently ceased to be accessible. Among other things it held my iTunes music library and the thought of having to rip all those CDs again was not at all appealing! After spending some time troubleshooting the problem with the manufacturer, they referred me to Payam. The service was friendly and professional and in a matter of days my data was recovered. Their post recovery follow up was also first class in making sure that all was in order and my system was back up to speed.

Bruce Real

It was with great relief that Payam Data Recovery were able to recover in excess of 95% of the data on my hard drive. I opted for the cheaper method of waiting but I was impressed with the service given.

Garth Roche

I was happy with all aspects of the service.

Keith Adams

Great staff and very helpful. They have recovered data for me a number of times.

Marco Albrecht

Very happy with the service!

Christina Tee

Payam did a really good job with recovering my files that were in a portable drive that was damaged. Really glad that I entrusted them to do the job!

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

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.

Ann

Great service. Recovered all my files. The process was clear and informative. Was not quite willing with the price that was initially quoted but with the discounts that were available (really helps for a student) and the outcome, money well spent.

Jhon Duque Ortiz

I am writing this email with the intention of highlighting the spectacular service I have received from all of the staff at Payam Data Recovery, who helped me even beyond their duty, psychological, economic and personal level.

I really feel fortunate to have received such a magnificent professional help and special treatment as has given to me.

Thank you once more for the time, advice and great service I received from such wonderful company and such high-quality professionals with such strong and high human value.

Thank you so much for your great help and unique service.

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

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

Lynette Lamont

Fantastic service - very professional, helpful and friendly ... and they retrieved my data!!!

Mulham

My experience was nothing less that perfect. Great Service, seamless process and great outcome.

The guys were able to recover 200GB worth of critical Data from a MacBook Air device.

All in all a positive experience.

Thanks a lot

Debra Schroeder

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

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

Amy Milburn

Super happy with the experience I've had with Payam data recovery. After years of unrealistic quotes and many people telling me my data could not be recovered I finally have my data back! I would highly recommend Payam to all my family and friends!

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.

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.

Ok, so get this! I was asked to take the photos of my sister in law's wedding. I went to Port Douglas and got some beauties. I had taken special precautions by purchasing a brand new memory card of 16 gb so that nothing would go wrong. I get home with my 2000, count them 2000, photos and as I'm transferring them from the camera to the computer.... it seizes up and I get the rainbow wheel horror child. When it was all over..... GONE!!!! AAAAHHHHH. I googled "HELP lost photos need to retrieve" or something like that, and got reviews of this company. They were close, I went straight over there. I really liked the way they said straight up, $250 and if we don't get 'em it's no cost. Cool bananas. Do it baby. Yep. Got 'em!!! Oh Yeah! Heaven. I just wished I'd seen the special $50 voucher they have on this site and it would've just been two hunda. We're talking wedding photos here. RELATIVES wedding photos. IN LAWS wedding photos. Lordy Lordy. This could've been like, a major feud fest. I would even say I feel a certain love towards this company. Yes. A kind of love. You know what I'm saying?

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

Stewart E.

Once the service was completed the follow up has been great and the help in getting to understand what was recovered and what was just system files was very helpful in managing the drive.

Robert Rigutto

I did a lot of research and called a lot of places , I even took my hard drive to a competitor , they couldn't do a thing after 1 week and were disorganized at best. I have extremely valuable information on my hard drive and it was the 2nd time this had happened to me. I was stressed and confused by all the options out there , but the best option is Payam Data recovery. They can never guarantee a result but they were hopefully and they retrieved it all and it was a complicated retrieval but they did it. I highly recommend them and their professional team.

Merv Butterworth

My vote is that I thought your service levels were top of the class.

LIFE SAVER- I foolishly formatted a memory card which contained the birth and first 2 weeks of pics taken of my first born baby boy. Needless to say, I was devastated and very distraught. After a quick internet search I found PAYAM Data Recovery and all the reviews were highly positive. Craig was extremely professional and honest and within 24 hours he had recovered my precious images at a very reasonable cost. Now I can share these special moments with my son when he grows up and it’s all thanks to the know-how of PAYAM. I would highly recommend them in any circumstance where their services may be required. Thanks Craig and if I could add any more stars to this rating I would…

Dayle M.

I thought I had lost all my photos off my phone, some with such important personal memories and totally irreplaceable.Payam staff did such an amazing job and retrieved my photos.The compassion and thoughtfulness I was treated with through this whole procedure was exemplary and I would never hesitate to recommend Payam.

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.

Brad Will

When a SSD Hard drive fails it is always a concern about whether data will be recoverable or not - luckily Payam were able to get all of our required files back off the drive, and at a very good price. Communication along the way was spot on also, would definitely recommend them!

Kerry Mordue

We were absolutely thrilled with the results from your data recovery process. You were both professional and a prompt.

You kept us informed with every step and I can’t thank you enough for the results we gained by using your team.

KishanGoonniah

I was very happy with the service provided from the free and fast assessment to the total restoration of my data on time and at a great price.

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.

billy999

Our memory card decided to pack it in right at the end of our overseas holiday :S, so we tried an unnamed data recovery company who wanted several hundred $ just to attempt the recovery! We took it to Payam and we had the data recovered,copied to a huge 32gb usb and back to us in 3days for less than 1/2 of what the other place wanted! The service was top notch and we were even given a discount because we were told our card recovery was impossible, turned out the bad news was for another customer. They recovered as much as they possibly could with our seriously stuffed card, and the overall service was much better then I would have expected.

Frederic Lai Tham

Simply the best 🙂

Phil Heyne

That desperate sinking feeling of your hard drive failing can spoil your whole day. Thanks to Payam within a few days I had all my data recovered and back in my new computer.

Max Rarates

I was so glad my data was all good once I got it back from Payam, Thank you for retrieving my data!

Philip Balfour

My iPhone stopped working for no reason. Unfortunately, I had not backed it up - the phone contained photos of my twins. I was heartbroken, I thought I would never see those photos again. Payam successfully recovered my data! I will forever be grateful. Thank you so much payam

Emma B

Excellent experience with Payam. They recovered data for me that no one else could. Definitely worth it to recover years of lost photos. Thank you!

Kalvin Dever

We recently had a disk turn faulty in our 4 Tb striped raid storage.   Consequently, we faced loosing all the data, some of which was irreplaceable.  I found Payam after a Google search and some phone calls to other storage recovery service providers.  Payam was the only one who understood the importance of the data to us.  I sent the whole device to him and could not be happier with the service.  It was fantastic.  He gave me a quote with different options including timeframes from which I could choose – and then he met them.  I guess the ultimate endorsement is that I have sent a second disk with faulty heads to Payam to have the data recovered.   If you need data recovered and customer service is important to you then give Payam a call.

Tim Knaggs

Vinh & Paolo, a big thank you for recovering all my data lost when my iPhone tried to swim recently. Having no recent backup I was bereft until meeting you. I could not believe your promptness nor that I had so much data hanging in space. You are professional at Payam. Long after the cost is forgotten I have all the information crucial to my existence. Thank you. Tim

zellybabe

I am an avid photographer and a mum of 3 little cuties and I mistakenly stored all my photos including our family and baby pics from 2005 till 2010 on a single external hard drive....so you can imagine my despair when I turned it on one day only to hear a loud clicking, clunking sound with an error message on my computer saying there was no readable files! I was desperate and did as much research as I could to find a company that could help me. I knew I only had one shot and recovering anything from the damaged drive, so after much phoning and emailing around I came to the decision that Payam was the only place that had a very high success rate and I felt assured that they could help my situation. Well my intuition served me well because they had success, they were able to save all my files and I couldn't be happier!! Throughout the whole process we were updated on their progress and our emails were always responded to very quickly. They are extremely professional and my experience with this company has been outstanding! I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone that finds themselves in a situation like mine! THANK YOU PAYAM DATA RECOVERY!!!!!

Sean Humphrey

Amazing company, recovered all my data. Thank you.

Steve

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!

Jayne McCabe

I cannot rate the service provided by Payam Data Recovery highly enough! I have done a few big things in my life, such as getting married and building a house where you would reasonably expect to receive great service, but this exceeded even those!!! Payam are very transparent and upfront about the service they provide and so you can rest assured that they will do everything to get your data back. The emails I received along the way were both regular - so I never had to wonder what was going on - and they addressed every question before I had even thought of it. The shipping and payment process is simple and hassle free. This is a good, honest Australian company and the best at what they do. Thank you Payam for recovering my memories!

Great Service, Best Price. My external hard drive stopped working which I was using to backup my work and family photos for years! I searched google for data recovery companies and Payam's website was by far the most helpful, their services were the best priced and the location was perfect. So I rang Craig and he said to bring in the drive for assessment. After bringing it in I got a mail from Craig the same day to say what the damage was and to confirm the quote. Now that's service, I was really impressed. Payam recovered all my data within the agreed time. You can't ask for more than that. I would highly recommend Payam to anyone. Thanks again.

Jennifer Baxa

Wow! You saved 10 years of my kids photos from birth to school. I was devastated. After calling Western Digital support they told me to give you a call. I'm glad I did. Awesome service.

Alison Wong

AMAZING. I was devastated after I was told by other phone shop/s that data was irrecoverable on my phone (3 years of un-backed up memories right there). I wasn't in a rush (2-3 week expected) but I got a call back from Lachlan in 2 days saying it was all restored successfully. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You guys are amazing

Rod Smith

I was happy to have my files retrieved. From the outset it was made clear that no guarantee of a successful outcome could be provided. I realised that I may have been wasting money committing to the attempt. Subsequently the data that was able to be retrieved was more than compensation for that which couldn’t. During the process I was kept adequately informed.

Matthew Scowcroft

We were very happy. The quote for the work was realistic and it was done in the timeframe estimated. We have all our data and we’re happy with the results.

AJ

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.

I am living in sgp and have asked so many local shops who couldn’t provide any forms of guarantees while requiring to be paid upfront. Chanced upon payam and happened to be in Sydney to check out the company and its office. Decided to go ahead with their recovery service for my water damaged phone and the rest was history. Great service and I received the package within 3 weeks including hard disk with data and surprisingly a repaired phone. Highly recommended!

Never fun to lose your data. My external hard drive stopped working. I contacted a couple of places that were not too helpful and quoted me the highest possible quote from the get go. When I jumped on live chat with Payam, they answered immediately. The info was concise, helpful, friendly and accurate. I completed a job form in seconds, took the device in the next day, chatted to the recovery specialist and off I went. It’s great that you can choose a speed of urgency which means if you’re not in a rush the cost drops significantly. They retrieved most of my data from the hardrive, they kept me super informed on email, and the cost was SUPER reasonable compared to all the crazy quotes I received from others. I will DEFINITELY only use these guys for this sort of thing if I ever need to again.

Every single staff member I spoke to from beginning to end was excellent in every way. The job got was completed before the due date and all data was recovered. Perfect service, wish more companies could operate like this. I was hesitant to part with the money, but coming out the other end I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery and would never go anywhere else.

Payam were quick, professional and thorough. I only had one file I needed recovered, and although some of it had... suffered irreparable damage due to hard drive failure, they still managed to recover almost the entire file - so much of it that it was practically a full recovery, in a business-use sense. Worth every penny. Thankyou, Payam!read more

I would 100% recommend Payam. I accidentally dropped my phone in the ocean where it sat for a few minutes before I got... my hands on it. After drying it out it wouldn’t switch back on. I went and visited Payam and it only took a week for them to fully retrieve all my data (photos, contacts, videos etc) and they delivered it to my door for free a few days later. It was an incredibly easy process and their staff were so lovely, answering all my questions. They are lifesavers!read more
