I absolutely loved dealing with everyone at Payam the process was super-efficient and professional and all my data was recovered! My computer was drenched in water and I thought I would have had to pay a fortune to retrieve everything but i was given a reasonable price and quick recovery time. Thank you so much again, really saved me!!

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!

Thank you to the team of data recovery specialists at Payam. After much despair from seeking recovery services elsewhere and being told my data was unrecoverable, I sought out Payam. Wished I’d gone there first. They were able to recover all of my irreplaceable valuable information (documents, photos, music files etc) which I thought had gone forever. Very reasonable price too. Excellent work and would definitely recommend Payam to anyone needing their valuable data recovered.

I will shout it from the roof tops as to how happy I was with my experience with you. I had lost data from two USB’s which had graduation photos, overseas trips and my father in law who has since passed away.

I had been to three other companies who did not want to know me but fortunately one put me onto you. Your staff was very professional friendly and extremely helpful. The great news is that all photos and videos were retrieved to my absolute delight. Thank you ever so much. I have already sung your praises to my friends.

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.

Janise Au October 27, 2016

Before dealing with your company I was under the impression that data recovery is a very expensive and troublesome experience to be avoided at all costs. I was referred to you by my IT person, who gave a good report from a previous experience of referring a customer. After receiving an outline of your services I was pleased to discover you offer a range of levels of cost v timeline, so I was able to choose something that met my needs and budget. I was then impressed with the level of service and communication throughout the process. I will not hesitate to recommend you should I come across anyone needing similar help in recovering data. Thank you.

I am so happy with everything you guys did. I was absolutely devastated when i thought all of the photos of my kids and all of my study docs were gone. You guys were so understanding and compassionate and it was such a relief to know you would do everything you could to save my data.

I was extremely relieved to have over 99% of my data recovered. I would recommend you to anybody and will use you again if needed (fingers crossed I don’t though). Thank you so much!

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!

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!

When I needed urgent access to a couple of the retrieved files, before I had received back the retrieved data on hard disk, your staff sent me an email attachment with the 2 files I needed. They were also able to delay the deletion of your back-up copy of the retrieved data, until I had had a chance to fully check out all the retrieved data on the external hard disk.

Amazing service from start to end. My drive data was saved! Payam held onto the drive whist I was on holiday, then followed with a call to arrange suitable delivery on my return. I wish all companies were like this.

I was extremely happy with the service I received! I thought I had lost my entire university thesis and various other important files when I had spilt tea on my MacBook.

I searched tirelessly for a company that would not only be able to retrieve the data at a reasonable price, but one that I could trust with such personal information. The team at Payam kept me up to date with the progress of my data recovery and managed to retrieve all of my files!

I have already recommended Payam to friends and family -particularly those who are as clumsy as me and just as likely to spill liquid on their computers. Thanks again for all of your help!

I was told: “External hard drive devices can easily get corrupted – especially, if the hard drive is not ejected correctly.”– but, in error, I did this and sure enough my external drive device “DIED”!!!  I went to Apple Store where I purchased the device.

They said:  “Sorry, bad luck; the data is corrupted; nothing can be done about it.”  I was desperate. I investigated Sydney Seagate Service Centres and I tracked down Payam Data Recovery at North Sydney. I took my device there and within a couple of weeks and after paying a very reasonable cost, all my data had been recovered. Wow!!  They achieved the impossible and at every step of the way, they were enormously understanding of my distress & enormously helpful in getting back to being fully operational. Thank You to all at Payam!

I was very happy with both the service and end result.You kept me informed the whole way and I was lucky you could retrieve most of my photos,which had much sentimental value.I feel you do a great job, the only thing I wished I could change was the price, but at least I could split it

It is quite nervous for me to choose a company to recover my data as you know the data worth a lot, much more than the device itself nowadays, after reading some reviews I decide to choose your company as at least I can come

into your office and talk to someone, I am glad that I did, I can get back most of the data with high quality, apparently from the severe damage of the drive and I am very happy with the result, worth every single cent of it. Thank you.

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.

During the process I was kept adequately informed.

I think You guys did an outstanding job for the amount of work needs to be done within a tight schedule that would be hard to achieve by any competitors in the industry. The most valuable to me is that you guys are willing to do the job with the right equipment to have the work done properly when requested for high priority service. Few in the industry can do so even offered to pay the right money. By this positive attitude, customers will keep coming back to do business with you and I’m sure your business will go very far. Of course, you deserve the fee charged for the work done with quality and professionalism even it can be costly. I was amazed with the knowledge and skills you have for the job.

It is grateful to mention the effort you guys put in to reinstall the windows on my laptop back to its pre-damaged state with a new hard drive, which has been working well ever since. I also received the backup drive with all the data i needed on the next delivery day at my door once the payment was cleared, so i could carry on with my work. It was just as promised without hassle or surprise. The communication in general was good and prompt.

I am happy with the overall service and definitely will use again and recommend to people who need the service.

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.

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.

Best data recovery service ever!! Don’t risk it to others, they’re overpriced and sucks! I had a hard disk broken, dead by shock, and I took it to them. They gave me a quote in 24 hrs, and started the job. It was a very hard thing to recover, as it had severe damage. It took longer than expected, however, they recovered my precious, priceless data! Payam data made my (not day), life! I even wanted to pay more than the cost! Don’t risk on other companies, best experience ever. I’ve recommend this to everyone. They can do the impossible!!! Friendly service, and always keep me update of the status. Highly recommend it. If you have loss data, don’t risk other, take it to the pros, Payam Data.

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.

We are an Australian charity involved in overseas aid. All our media (video, images) for the past 6 years had been moved to an external hard drive – which then failed. Local experts referred us to Payam after being unable to recover data. Lachlan made the process of sending the disc easy and was at all times attentive, clear and professional about options. The eventual cost was beyond our means. Knowing we were a charity, Payam offered to recover the data at a substantially reduced cost and put it onto a complimentary hard drive. You guys are great!!!!!! Thank you

Kane from Payam Brisbane was great and easy to deal with. They definitely know what they are doing and have all the advanced tools and fancy software which can talk to the drive’s firmware directly to recover nearly any faulty drive. In our case our sata hard drive would turn off during data recovery with r-studio and reply with CRC errors. They managed to recover all the data on it and clone it 1:1 to a new drive that was bootable.

Great job, reasonable pricing. And the person you talk to is actually the person who does the recovery so you don’t talk to a clueless front desk person. They are definitely one of the best in their field and this is coming from an IT specialist with 20 years experience.

Unfortunately in this type of business there are many sharks that are eager to take advantage of people in a compromising position.

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.

I was told that the likelihood of even recovering my external hard drive was 20-30% from another person………. but when I took it to Payam they told me they would try their best – and boy did they deliver – They recovered 91% of my lost data – and this was amazing considering I thought I would not have a hope in actually recovering it at all – The team at Payam were beyond Fantastic and I can’t thank them enough = I will definitely be using them again if I am ever in a situation like I was.

I fried my hard drive by plugging in the incorrect power source. Devastated as I was I gave Payam a call and was told the price of recovery which initially shocked me, but then I started thinking if I get back the thousands of videos and tens of thousands of photos that it was definitely worth doing.

Payam staff were very professional from start to finish and when they called me to say that they had recovered 100% of my data I was over the moon. I would recommend them to anyone and told them I would write a review as I was very impressed with their service

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.

The North Sydney branch retrieved some valuable data that was extremely important from a CF card. It was a hardware/circuit issue so I Got told 3 quotes and depending on the problem it would be anywhere between $220 – $700+

I was ready for worst case scenario and wouldn’t have know any better so they could have said $700+ and u would have paid no questions but they were honest and told me it was a minor hardware issue and charged the minimum $220.

In addition from ongoing correspondence via phone and email, what really impressed me was their honestly and genuinely wanting to help.

Would definitely go back (fingers crossed I won’t need to) but it’s got to know there are pro’s out there who can help in a what seems like a useless situation.

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.

My external hard drive with all my important personal data, photos and videos just didn’t boot up one day when I plugged it in it was working the day before and suddenly stopped working the next. I then took it to my local computer shop in Mandurah who tried to recover the information for me and said that it was most likely that all my data was lost and suggested I try Payam Data Recovery Services in Perth as they were the best in the business but they also did warn me that their services were not cheap. PAYAM in Perth attempted to recover my information however, it had to be sent on to the Sydney Recovery Centre. I can’t remember how long the service actually took but I was so happy in receiving the phone call saying that they had managed to recover everything! FANTASTIC! I was so very grateful. I doubt any other place could have done the job they did, and you certainly can trust that they will do the best job possible. This however was back in January this year. You would think that this could not happen TWICE in one year and to the same person. However, in May this year, it happened again. This time the newly recovered hard-drive got zapped by lightning all I know was that the hard drive got really hot and then nothing. I went through the same process as before, going firstly to the Perth office who in turn sent it onto Sydney .. And what magicians they are at the Sydney Recovery Centre. They managed to recover the information for me once again. I can’t thank you all enough!! It’s very obvious to me now to always go to the best place first. It’s worth it. If your data is important to you pay for the service DEFINITELY GO TO PAYAM DATA RECOVERY SERVICES!!!!

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.

My hard drive with all my important personal photos and videos just didn’t boot up one day when I plugged it in, so I took it to a small computer shop a friend said did data recovery quite cheap, I thought if they had no luck I’d go to one of the bigger places. BAD IDEA! The first place couldn’t recover anything and said most likely all my data was lost and as a last resort I could try Payam Data Recovery as they were the best. When I took it to Payam and saw Paolo, it turned out the first place I’d tried had actually damaged my drive further! I was devastated, expecting there was no chance of recovery. Within 10 days Paolo rang me back to let me know they had recovered everything! AMAZING! I was thrilled. I doubt many other places could’ve have done the job they did, they are the professionals, you can trust that they will do the best job possible. Paolo was great to deal with and I can’t thank you all enough!! It’s very obvious to me now to always go to the best place first and not the cheaper option. It’s just not worth it. If your data is important to you – go to these guys!

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.

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

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.

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.

Losing data you thought was on an external HDD = bad

Dealing with the fact that you may never get your data back = worse

Dealing with Payam = PRICELESS!!

These guys are the best in the trade.  They are extra-courteous, sincere, honest and best of all they provide TOP value for money. I lost data on a 1TB external disk drive that had two 500GB disks in it.  I didn’t realise the product had hardware RAID, like an idiot I did not enable it and simply backed up data with no RAID!!!

Payam, recovered **all** my data, could not be happier – thanks a lot Payam

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…

I called Payam and from start to finish they were awesome. Great customer service, a really quick process and all for a reasonable price. I called other data recovery businesses but their prices and customer service didn’t stack up to Payam. I totally recommend Payam Data Recovery. THANKS AGAIN!!! You turned a very stressful situation into a manageable one 🙂

After losing my photos on a trip of a lifetime, I was quoted $1700 from a local Canadian company to retrieve my photos due to the complicated nature of my data loss problem. Devastated, I thought my photos were lost forever. After what seemed like endless searches, I heard about Payam through an online blog and sent my broken SD card across the ocean in hopes that they could recover my memories. I chose to pursue the economy service for $300 and immediately began communication with Payam. They were able to recover my photos and have them returned to me in less than the 30 day limit and at the fraction of the cost back home. I would highly recommend this company to anybody looking to salvage photos from a damaged SD card.

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.

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!! 🙂

I will never be able to thank PAYAM enough for the great job they did in recovering some very precious photos I had accidently deleted.

I was devastated when my local computer shop told me they could not recover the contents of my External HDD. They could ghost it, but couldn’t get the files to open. The young fellow in the shop, after much research myself, gave me PAYAM’s web address and I contacted them in their Sydney office. (much cheaper than everyone else I contacted) They got all of my files back except 1. How good is that……. Would definitely recommend them to anyone with Drive problems!

I was referred to PAYAM Data Recovery by my IT contact and I admit to being delighted with the service and the turnaround time that I experienced with PAYAM. We were quite frantic when we lost our data and our back-up. We have had this occur once before and with a less than satisfactory outcome provided by the previous data recovery company, I was very anxious. I spoke with Payam himself initially and then continued through the data recovery process with the professional assistance of Paolo Bileci.

Paolo was terrific. He kept me informed, he reassured me with his expert knowledge of what needed to be done. Paolo worked to my budget and gave constant, excellent customer service and feedback, throughout the experience. I collected 100% of our data and walked away with the absolute confidence that I would use PAYAM Data Recovery again if the need arose again. I can confidently recommend their services to anyone in need of data recovery experts! Thanks Paolo for turning my anxiety into a smile at an affordable price

As a photographer and videographer, my external hard drives are my life! So when one of my harddrives died on me when I was completing a backup- I was a bit of a wreck. I had client’s work on there that I had to recover. After taking it to a local computer repair place, I was disheartened when they told me they could not complete the job. Fortunately, however, they recommended Payam Data Recovery. As soon as I arrived, Craig carefully explained in detail their services and tactics to recover my content. I immediately felt reassured and went home feeling much more positive. Long story short- ALL of my data was recovered and I was able to finish my work! Hopefully I don’t have to see Craig again, but if I do, I know I’ll be in good hands. Excellent customer service and I have no hesitation recommending this business!!

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!!!!!

Great price, great service, great business! My work external drive died and Payam recovered all my files and put them onto a new drive for a fraction of the cost I was quoted elsewhere. I took the new drive back to work and spent a day updating and sorting all my job files on the drive. I then left it with another unit within my workplace for them to backup the files to a server. I was totally shattered when they dropped the new drive and stuffed it. I took it back to Payam and they fixed the drive for free. Awesome service! Thanks for your help guys.

I lost very sentimental photos due to a corrupt card. I was quoted $800.00 to recover them by the other data recovery company. Payam did it for 1/4 the price, I couldn’t believe it. They were easy to deal with, kept in constant contact so I knew exactly what was going on, and got the disk to me very quickly. Yay, I thought I might never get those photos back, I’m overjoyed. Thanks guys. If I need help with business data recovery I know where I will be going.

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.

Payam is a magician! My network (along with my attached hard drive) got fried in a storm whilst I was away on holidays. I consulted friends that worked in IT and even paid a computer store check my hard drive out and they told me that I’d have to pay them again for a quote to have it looked at by a forensic mob. I did my own investigative work and found Payam through Google. I read all the other reviews, checked out the website and compared it to others I had found. I even mystery shopped several companies by calling over the phone and asking Qs about their services and costs to recover the data. I chose to use Payam and I agree with the professionalism and response times reported in the previous reviews. In the end I got my data and photos copied onto a new hard drive and it cost much less than what some other companies were quoting (try $1K + interstate registered postage!). I can’t thank Payam and his team enough and thoroughly recommend them for data recovery services (although I hope not to have to go through the experience again!). Extremely happy 🙂

Very professional. I rang up a few different places but decided to stop at Payam first because it was quite central (North Sydney) and their price was competitive. The fact that they assured no cost if the data was not recovered was great. All data was recovered and I saved my reputation. Overall a positive experience!

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.

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!

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.

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!

Paolo was very helpful in getting ALL of my data back. A great relief. Although I had a backup I was unsure how up to date it was, so getting everything was an unexpected bonus. I was pleased that my local computer specialist admitted that he was unable to fix the problem and recommended PAYAM. It was good to be kept informed of progress. An added bonus was their service for completely destroying the ‘dead’ hard disk free of charge, if I required. I would have no hesitation in using them again or recommending them to others.

Paolo & his team did a wonderful job on recovering our data.

We thought that’s it we’ve lost everything, but lucky for us the computer place gave us PAYAM’s phone number & that’s the best advice they gave us. We met Paolo & he was fantastic, he explained everything to us in simple terms & kept us informed every step of the way & the price was good, considering what we got back. We would definitely recommend Paolo & his team at PAYAM, as they have provided us with excellent customer service and did what we asked. Mary

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.

Payam Data Recovery performed an outstanding job they in recovering data from our damaged disk drive. As an organisation, I can say that we were impressed with the speed with which their team responded to our request and the courtesy and consideration extended to our staff. I was particularly impressed with the follow up contact, we received following the data recovery and the offers of assistance, should we need it. It is not often that I encounter an organisation which lives up to the claims made on its web site, but I am happy to say that, in my experience, Payam Data Recovery meets or exceeds all of the representations made on its web site. As a result of the way our incident was handled, I have recommended this organisation to other businesses we deal with and provided them with contact details. I can not think of a higher recommendation.

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.

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.

When you first start researching data recovery it can be pretty scary. My external hard drive with 5 years worth of the whole family’s photos and backups couldn’t be read. I found Payam with a simple Google and liked both the location and testimonials. I sent some screen shots in and then gave Craig a call. Perfectly explained, no data – no charge, could give an exact quote on inspection. I took it in, gave the go-ahead and a few days later (and that was the economy service) I had an email with a list of the files recovered. I now have all of my files for about an 8th of the price of printing all the photos. The service reminded me of how great service should be. Many Thanks….

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?

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.

I have worked as an IT Support technician for over 10 years. I have often been able to recover data for clients. If the drive is able to spin up I can often get data off. But not this time! This drive just crashed with no warning, no slow writes and reads. Just bang and gone. Since the drive contained varieties of information in various states of backup, it was commercially important to try and recover it. The guys at Payam worked their magic and recovered as far as we can tell all 240 GB of files. Payam now provides me with another option for clients who must have that data back. Very professional, very helpful.

Payam is a magician! My network (along with my attached hard drive) got fried in a storm whilst I was away on holidays. I consulted friends that worked in IT and even paid a computer store check my hard drive out and they told me that I’d have to pay them again for a quote to have it looked at by a forensic mob. I did my own investigative work and found Payam through Google. I read all the other reviews, checked out the website and compared it to others I had found. I even mystery shopped several companies by calling over the phone and asking Qs about their services and costs to recover the data. I chose to use Payam and I agree with the professionalism and response times reported in the previous reviews. In the end I got my data and photos copied onto a new hard drive and it cost much less than what some other companies were quoting (try $1K + interstate registered postage!). I can’t thank Payam and his team enough and thoroughly recommend them for data recovery services (although I hope not to have to go through the experience again!). Extremely happy 🙂

“The main board on my notebook computer collapsed while I was working overseas.  It was not able to be repaired.  I was not unduly worried as I knew that I would be able to recover all the data off my hard disk and transfer it to a new computer.

Unfortunately it was not quite as easy as that.  I was able to transfer most of my files but some key files could not be recovered.  It turned out that some files were encrypted and there was nothing that I could do to get access to the data, which included all the files needed to file my BAS return.  A few years earlier, while working on a special contract, my notebook computer had been set up as the master computer in a small network we established so that the others in the team could access our printer.  My computer had had encryption placed on the files to ensure their security.  The encryption was removed when the network was dismantled.  What I did not realise was that the encryption remained on a number of the pre-existing files.

When I returned to Australia with my non-functioning computer, the repairer suggested that Payam might be able to recover my data for me.  I took my hard disk to Payam to see what they could do for me.  A couple of hours later they rang to say that they had recovered all my data, apart from a couple of inconsequential files.  That was wonderful news as I was not relishing the prospect of attempting to reconstruct all my inadvertently encrypted files.  Payam gave me a CD with all the data files from my hard disk and I was able to transfer them to my new computer without any problems.

The recovery process was very straightforward for Payam, as my hard disk contained the encryption algorithm, and they were able to access that algorithm.  I might have been able to do something similar had I been able to find an identical computer to my non-working notebook computer, already an obsolete model, with an identical operating system, and install my hard disk on that computer.  That was an uncertain and highly stressful undertaking, so I was extremely relieved that Payam had a straightforward process to access my encrypted data.

After approaching two data recovery companies and being told in each case, after initial investigation payments were made, that the data was unrecoverable, hope was almost lost as well as the data. Payam Forensic Data Recovery was then mentioned to try. The service from start to finish was exemplary. Most of the data was recovered on essentially an unrecoverable data drive. This was remarkable as the drive has been opened and tampered with from two different companies previously in their attempts of recovery. Without hesitation I would recommend Payam for data recovery, as from my experience they are the company that got the job done, it’s as simple as that.

I am happy to say that Payam saved the day for me and I would recommend them anytime. They managed to retrieve data from a broken hard drive from my new video camera which stopped working half way through my son’s international sporting competition and o/s holiday. I was told by others it probably could not be done but Payam managed to get most of it off for me. They were extremely efficient and kept in contact with me even after I had the recovery disc to make sure it was OK.

My external hard drive simply died, along with about 2 years worth of family photos and some work related records. Found PAYAM on the net. Was impressed by the testimonials. They recovered all of the data without a problem. Easy!! Perhaps more so, however, it is great to know PAYAM exist so that if I have similar issues in the future I am covered. Richard Andrew

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.

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 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.

Our business relies on digital storage and when a drive fails it can cause great concern.  We recently experienced an issue with a drive that was used to store critical client data.  Without hesitation we sent the drive to PAYAM Data Recovery and they have successfully recovered all data and returned it to us on a new drive.  Their communication and service is professional and courteous and everything they promised was delivered.  If we have any future hard drive or data recovery issues they’ll again be my first – and only – call.

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.

A big thank you to Payam for recovering our two hard disk drives completely. We had a server running two mirrored SCSI hard disk drives. We thought we were protected, however both hard drives failed. We tried everything we could to recover the information but had no luck. Our last option was to get the professionals at Payam to recover the data for us and they were able to do this within 24 hours. Payam constantly kept us up to date with their progress and were extremely professional. I highly recommend their services.

While our  IT guys were installing my wife’s new work system I asked them to have a look at the home PC that had been performing erratically. They took it away and I  expected to hear back about some minor problem. Instead they said the hard disk had crashed and despite all their best efforts they couldn’t fix the problem. While my wife and I have backup systems for our work PCs we had nothing similar for the home PC. This was not good news. There was a long history of home related correspondence and documents and a large collection of photos taken by our two daughters that were saved on this computer.  Our IT guys recommended Payam, so I took the hard drive over to North Sydney hoping for the best. As it turned out I was not disappointed with Payam being able to recover everything. They put it on an external drive, which is now the backup, and all ended well.

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.

I had ten years worth of family photos, videos, music and general documents on my computer when I recently upgraded.  I had done the right thing and backed all of my files onto an external HDD and then formatted the old drive and gave it a new life as a gaming machine for the kids.  Unfortunately, I plugged the wrong power supply into the external HDD as I went to transfer all the files onto my new PC.  I knew straight away there was something wrong, as the LED didn’t come on and there was that horrible smell of burning circuits.  I had also bought a NAS with the new computer, so I pulled the external HDD apart and hoped to install the drive into the NAS and recover the data myself……of course that didn’t work. I rang every company on the Gold Coast and Brisbane that advertised data recovery (there were alot!) but most of them didn’t recover from damaged drives, while those that did wanted to charge me thousands.  From there I expanded my search and found Payam in Sydney.  To be honest I was wary at first because they were significantly cheaper than most others, but in the end I need not have worried.  Not only did they fix the drive for the agreed price, but they called me back with progress reports….twice….without me hassling! In the end I was thoroughly impressed with their service and their prices.  I would recommend them any day, and while I don’t ever want to use their services again, I would use them above all others.

When my HDD failed I was in shock thinking “that didn’t just happen, did it?” Everything I thought was worth keeping for the past 10 years was on that Drive.  The guys at the local PC store couldn’t even read the drive, saying “it has some big problems” & suggested I give the guys at PAYAM a call & send them my HDD.  Glad I did! I now have all my data back without losing anything.  Payams communication & personalised service was excellent. If you have any HDD problems these are definitely the guys to call!

I was overseas and away from my backup when the hard disk failed. The local ‘experts’ were unable to restore any data at all – and wasted much time – and had no idea what they were doing.

All my personal & work files (6 years worth) were all on my external hard drive, that is until my partner accidentally dropped it. When I went to use it I was not able to read, copy, delete or add files, plus the hard drive was making strange noises which I knew was not good news. I did some research on data recovery companies and called five in Melbourne, PAYAM had the best price and was conveniently located it was also a company whose brand I recognised. Craig was not only able to save 98% of my data but he also kindly spent time explaining everything I needed to know about external hard drives, backup drives etc. – our chat at his office lasted an hour and gave me plenty of useful information to ensure I did not lose my data again. I now have two external hard drives, one which I use regularly and one purely as my backup. Thank you Craig for your exceptional customer service and for saving all my data. Cheers

I am writing to tell you how satisfied I am with the service that you and PAYAM provided.

As you may remember, I had a WD Passport drive that had archived mail files, presentations and documents stored on it.  The drive died during a trip overseas and I was desperate to recover the information. I found your advertisement on the internet and also found some independent references on other forums and blogs as to the quality of work that PAYAM was able to provide.

Costing was visible, nothing was hidden.

From the first phone call contact, to the final pickup, PAYAM provided exemplary service and support.  Email replies were fast, and the phone support was excellent – Craig Nevans is an excellent resource and a real asset in critical situations like this where communication is vital.

At all times I knew the situation with the recovery and the process.  Despite the possibility that the information would not be able to be recovered, you were able to retrieve the documents and mail files and so I am able to maintain my archives and so avoid a significant amount of work and also heart-ache when trying to look for older information.

I would recommend PAYAM to anyone in a similar situation who needs honest, professional cost effective service and support. Thank you again.

I would like to thank PAYAM Data Recovery and in particular Craig Nevans for the recent work they completed on my Dell XPS. Whilst Dell were happy to replace the faulty hard drive they couldn’t recover my data.  Payam was great in a number of areas. They kept me up to date via email and phone calls as the project progressed.  They were attentive as to what was required to be fixed – what data was important and what was not. Their follow up service after the job was completed was greatly appreciated.  The general advice received was also invaluable. The outcome was that all data could be recovered.  An excellent result.

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.

After my 1Tb drive containing Videos of two weddings, Family videos and photos events and irreplaceable data died,. I nearly lost faith in computers.,(Yes this is the drive I backed up the files to). My computer supplier could not recover the files and referred me to PAYAM. Fearing the worst I spoke to Mike and Payam who impressed me with their caring and supportive suggestions offering me hope for a complete recovery of all data. Not only did they achieve this even though the hard drive was completely corrupted but they allowed me to verify that all the files were readable and that I was satisfied before payment was made. A price had been negotiated beforehand with which I was extremely satisfied with. I was contacted by Payam a few days later just to check that I was completely satisfied , with an offer to help if I had any problems. I have no hesitation in recommending their Gold Star service to anyone in similar stressful circumstances. They are Competent Diligent and Caring and as far as I am concerned they are like Intensive Care the save the data and alleviate the stress of the customer.

I recently lost all of my photos off my second internal hard drive after having a DVD drive installed in 2 of my computers by a well known company. A friend in the computer industry recommended that I take my computer directly to Payam. I went over that afternoon and spoke to Paul. He went through all the options and prices available to me for the recovery. Although I had gone late in the day, Paul rang me the next day with information on the hard drive. The previous company had not only destroyed my photos but had mixed up my hard drives and connections between the 2 computers they were dealing with. It took a while to trace back where the mix-up occurred but with Paul’s help I finally figured it out and I was able to get the correct drive to him for repair. I ended up with all of my photos back and all the hard drives and connections in the right location. Payam only charged me for the recovery of the damaged disk throughout this whole complicated process. Paul then rang to make sure that I had all the correct information. Many thanks to Paul for all of his help. I always appreciate great customer service and I got it by the bucket loads at Payam.

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.

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!!

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

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!

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.

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.

My 500GB WD external HDD died and I was horrified to realise that I hadn’t updated my backup copy of my photo’s! Which means I had lost all my personal / holiday photo’s since the beginning of 2010. I did a search on the internet for data recovery places and phoned up three other companies that left me falling off my chair at the prices to recover approximately 300mb of data! (ranged from $700 to $1500). I eventually contacted Payam Data Recovery and was quite relieved to find out the cost of recovery (no hidden fee’s – cost was listed on their website) – especially when they will not charge you if they are unable to recover anything. So really you have nothing to lose. The main staff member I dealt with was fantastic, very professional and assisted me when we were arranging drop off of another external HDD and also pick up of the data – the next day. Great service and friendly staff. Would recommend this company to anyone!

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!

When my 400GB Western Digital external hard drive died, I almost died with it. I had LOTS of photo’s (including irreplaceable photos from when my daughter was born (6 years ago) to now & holiday photo’s, etc..), music, movies, financial and personal documents, you name it it was on there, and I didn’t have copies of them anywhere else. I mean who backs up their back up?! I googled data recovery, and came across a number of companies that promised to try and recover my data – for an exorbitant amount (from $1500 up to around the $3000 mark). Then I saw Payam’s ad. (thank god!) They were central to where I was, and when I called them they were extremely helpful and the price was A LOT cheaper than the other quotes. I dropped into their office with my external hard drive that (Thursday) lunch hour and the technician I spoke to was wonderful. Because of his knowledge, expertise and great customer service I walked out feeling relaxed and more hopeful than what I had been that I would get all my data back. I opted for their regular service, which was meant to take quite a while, but the turnaround was only a few days and before I knew it (early the following week) I had all my data back again! and (for just a little bit extra) all my data was loaded onto a new external hard drive so I didn’t have to do it! I would DEFINITELY recommend Payam to my friends and anyone needing data recovery at a reasonable rate!

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.

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 had 500+ important (to me) photos seemingly lost forever on a faulty compact flash card. My PC was requesting the card be formatted and my camera wasn’t recognising it at all!

Fortunately, I located Payam Data Recovery via a Google search and after their free quote and assessment of the problem, they were able to recover every single image on the card – for a more than reasonable fee.

Recommended!

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.

We were referred to Payam after our computer technician was unable to help with a hard drive that had been affected by a power surge. The team were more than helpful, keeping us updated by phone with their progress. Payam managed to recover 100% of the data we had lost and our brand new hard drive was delivered with in the week. Couldn’t have been happier with the price. Fingers crossed we won’t need to use their services again any time soon but we would definitely recommend them!

We lost a great deal of personal family data on an external drive recently. I shopped around for the best price and decided to give Payam a go. The data was recovered faster than I’d expected and for the amount quoted. Better still, I received a call several weeks later to confirm if I was confident that the data recovered was complete and correct.

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.

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.

When i discovered my crucial data was ‘lost’ I contacted a I.T technician who said it was highly unlikely that the data could be retrieved but recommended Payam as the place that could most likely find it, if anyone had any chance to?!?….Distressed and desperate I contacted Payam and was calmly talked through the process.Essentially if they couldn’t retrieve the data I would not have to pay all the costs and if they did find the data the price was negotiable based on what work they did. I ventured to their office prepared to offer a blank cheque but was pleasantly surprised with the cost of the quality work, but more so impressed by their exceptional customer service. Payam offered me premium customer service for the economy price and were able to retrieve 98% of my missing data in less than 3 working days. They also very generously copied all my data onto a clean hard drive and posted it free of charge to my workplace.Knowing how stressful this time of year was for me, they took an even more personalised approach and provided the hard drive free of charge. I can’t tell you how easy it was dealing with Payam. Their work is superb , their customer service is outstanding and communication with them was constant and clear. Just the other day I received an email from Payam letting me know that they were available to chat to if I needed assistance working through my recovered data. I have placed their business card at work and have shared the story of how generous and personalised their customer service was, let alone how amazing their work is to anyone who will listen! Please do not hesitate to contact them for help, I strongly recommend their services to anyone who experiences the grief of data loss. Thanks Payam, words can’t express my gratitude for your assistance. I wish you guys all the best in the new year 🙂

My data was was lost midnight Thursday night, by Friday lunchtime we had tried everything to regain the media and failed. Then we contacted Payam, we got honest evaluation of the drives within 3 hours of delivering our black box. Payam and Mike then gave us a timetable of when we could expect the box back. To say that we were desperate was an understatement. We were given undertakings on feedback and return of the drives and every single one was met. We received the drives back 5 days later not bad when you have nearly 4tb of Data. We were back editing within 2 hours of return of the material. Great Job and Great service thank you for being as good as you word

When my RAID array failed I was recommended to go straight to Payam. I must say that I experienced some of the best customer service I have ever had. I was most impressed by their flexibility to help me out. Also they did all they could to recover my data, of which 100% was recovered. I wish I knew more people with broken hard drives to recommend to him but in the event it does happen, I will ensure they contact Payam. Bravo.

My USB flash drive broke when my laptop fell off my bed with it connected. They were able to repair it and copy my documents to a new USB flash drive on the same when I asked for their urgent service. They were the only company I could find who could do this on the same day, the others I called said it would take at least 5 days. I even spoke with the boss Payam on the phone before bringing my flash drive in, he made everything sound like it would be OK when I was majorly stressed out when it first happened

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

Thanks Payam, for your amazing recovery. I can’t believe that a data out of USB stick that was quite damaged could be recovered in less than 48 hours.
From the beginning of time during the submission of my USB stick, and till you gave me a new stick with recovered data, you guys showed complete100% customer service. Kudos to your team.
No words!
Many Thanks

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

I have been using Payam for probably a decade now. They have never been unable to recover data for me. Their skills and customer service are exemplary. Most recent was a SSD that would not detect in bios, previously I have had data recovered from a failed raid 5 array, a fire damaged drive and some other failed hard disks I recommend their service to everybody

I contacted several different data recovery companies when my Raid 0 array failed. Payam responded the quickest, and not only that, provided me with a range of price options. Their lowest cost option was very competitive and quoted an expected completion time of 4 weeks.

I chose their lowest cost option as I was not in any hurry, but as it turned out, Payam recovered 100% of my data in under 10 days anyway. Communication from Payam was excellent, and I was regularly kept updated of their progress and expected completion time. Their staff was friendly and professional at all times.

I found Payam to be very knowledgeable, experienced, and above all, flexible and very customer centric. I have no reservations in recommending them to anyone

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

Paolo and Vinh at Payam were amazing. Not only is their skill amazing but their customer service is 2nd to none! I delivered them my water damaged iphone with precious photos from a recent trip, and within a few days they called with good news they’d been able to recover my data. The best thing is how easy they make it. They provided me with a USB with all my files, but also an iTunes Backup file which I easily restored to my new phone with a little help on the phone from AppleCare. Thanks guys I’ll definitely be recommending you to anyone who finds themselves in my position. Cheers

I can’t recommend Payam Data Recovery highly enough. They recovered most of my data from a broken memory card that was in the worst possible condition. In fact, it crumbled when I handed it to Vinh, who straight away reassured me there was hope. And to my amazement, 99% of my photos were recovered a few weeks later. So, anyone out there who is panicking, don’t stress, till you visit these guys. I also want to mention the wonderful service I received from Vinh, who called and emailed me regularly to give me up dates, as to where he and his team were at, in regards to recovering my data. Thank you so much, to Vinh, and all the wonderful staff at Payam.

Dear Wes, During our latest visit to Vietnam and Cambodia I made the fatal mistake of carrying out a request from my Tablet to format my SD card I mistakenly thought that did not affect my CF card. Unfortunately it did and I lost at least 1 day of photographs taken in Saigon. I asked various people if they could be retrieved only to be told by most people it could not be done. However a salesperson at Harvey Norman, Yes there, told me not all was lost as long as I had not done anything with the card but they could not do it nor would he suggest anyone. After some research I found Payam on a google search and with an office in Adelaide I thought why not give it a try. I spoke with Wes and although he would at the time not give me a guarantee he would look at it and let me know what he found. He did so early next day, including a print to show me. I gave him the go ahead and within days I had all my photos back, both Raw and JPG files. The thing that most impressed me was the fact that if I was not 100% happy with the result Payam would not charge me. How good is that!
Thank you Wes Hliniak, Thank you Payam, you both saved me a trip back to Saigon. Come to think of it?
Kind Regards

My digital camera packed up while on a recent overseas holiday and I could not recover some 900 plus photos. I also made things worse by mistakenly re-formatting the card. Thanks to Payam Data Recovery they systematically and thoroughly retrieved 95% of my images in high resolution thereby saving many precious memories and amazing images. It cost a little but was well worth it. Thank you

I was given a 2 GB Olympus memory card purchased new on eBay. Half way through a 4 week trip to the UK, the card stopped working. When we returned home, our computer couldnt read it, so we took it to Olympus to be told it was a counterfeit card. They would have nothing to do with it. We then took it to a forensic computer specialist, who also could do nothing with the card. We came across PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd when doing an internet search. I took the card to the North Sydney Office and was told I would know fairly soon if the photos were recoverable. The card was sent to the Melbourne office and Mark began working on it. He kept me informed about the progress recovering the data. It took longer than originally expected, because not only was the card a forgery, it was only 1GB, not 2 which made a difference in the recovery process. I was very impressed with Marks determination to get the photos and the fact that he would not give up. The time it took was immaterial as I just wanted my photos. I was also impressed that I would be charged a flat fee for the recovery. I would not hesitate to recommend PAYAM Data Recovery Pty Ltd to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. Kim Ker

I had my laptop stolen and recovered by Police. When I opened it everything has been wiped out. I had a very important manuscript that I hadn’t saved anywhere together with photos of my girls. Someone recommended Payam and told me they were the best. The moment I met Samantha and how she explained in simple words what had happened I knew I was in the right hands. Payam did an amazing job and I was in tears when I found out that they could recover what i was looking for. And above all is the professionalism and human touch of Samantha. I highly recommend it. Thanks PAYAM

I lost all my family photos on my external HD that just died. Payam were so great with communication as I live 4 hours away and had to post it to them. They recovered all my lost photos, very quickly which was great as we were so nervous to think the photos were gone. Very professional service too. Thanks again

I was told “external hard drive devices can easily get corrupted – especially if the hard drive is not ejected correctly” – but, in error, I did this and sure enough my external drive device died!! I went to Apple store where I purchased the device. They said “Sorry, bad luck, the data is corrupted, nothing can be done about it” I was desperate. I investigated Sydney Seagate service center and I tracked down Payam data recovery at North Sydney. I took my device there and within a couple of weeks and after paying a very reasonable cost, all my data had been recovered. Wow!! They achieved the impossible and at every step of the way, they were enormously understanding of my distress and enormously helpful in getting back to being fully operational. Thank you to all at Payam!

I work for a big a bank (not allowed to publish the name) and the only company we trust is Payam Data Recovery. The guys in IT said they saved us a few times when we had a server crash so when my personal external hard drive fell off my desk and hit the ground really hard – I took it to Payam to have a look. The ground was – it was not as bad as I had thought. They got my photos back in about 2 days and it cost $275. I was expecting it to cost $1500+. Really friendly too from the guy at the reception desk – forgot his name, I think it was Mick

Amazeballs! I dropped my portable drive off my bed and I called Seagate tech support desperate for a way to fix it. They told me to call Payam Data Recovery, the only company in New Zealand they authorized and recommended. I’m glad I called. They were super helpful and it worked out a lot cheaper thank I expected.

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.

I recently lost access to my external hard drive – which cleverly had never been backed up. A lot of data was lost including hundreds of compositions I’d written over the years. My brother recommended PAYAM and I can see why. Fast, free quote, and after accepting the job was completed within a couple of days. The data was couriered back to me on a very well priced new hard drive. I highly recommend these guys, and appreciate the fast service and great communication

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!

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

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

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.

I recover data myself but NOWHERE to the that this company does. These people know exactly what they’re doing. Hard drive failed when accidentally knocked it off table. Drive was cycle clicking and trying to be read. Went onto the official seagate website for a data recovery service. The ONLY Company it found as the official data recovery experts was payam. Payam have just recovered 100% of my data with the exact same folder/file structure with everything as the way it was. How they did it is beyond me but fascinates me and would love to learn what these guys do. Thanks so much again and will recommend any customers drive I would be unable to fix myself.

These guys are truly lifesavers! Our laptop hard disk suffered accidental impact and the file allocation table was messed up, tried a few other contractors before and no one could help.
We came across Payam when researching on the web, and sure enough, true to their word, they provided the best service ever. Delivered on what they said they would and all our important data were recovered for a very reasonable cost!

They are simply amazing, couldn’t recommend them enough. Truly the best data recovery team in Australia. Kudos to Mark and the team in Melbourne! Mark is very gracious and helpful. He and his team really make the world a better place to live. I really do mean it. We are really really grateful that there is Payam Recovery Data Centre in Melbourne as I can’t imagine if our data cannot be recovered.

Keep up the good job, Payam! God bless you. A++ Grade for quality and customer service.

Our hard drive went to sleep one day and low and behold we had no back-up. I took the drive to a local IT shop who advised the hard drive was corrupted and he did not have the technology to recover. Without hesitation he said he was confident Mark from Payam was required. Payam were so professional in their clear communication, likelihood of success and keeping me informed all the way. It took a solid 3 weeks but in the end all data was recovered. We are so grateful for this professional service and the care taken to recover all data from a seemingly dead drive. I am not a technical person, but I know it was a difficult job, but well worth the wait. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark at Payam, but the first recommendation is – BACK UP YOUR DATA!!!

My HDD (WD) was damaged when I copied some big files. I spent $89 fixing it in the local computer store (Palmy), but failed. They told me the disk was totally damaged and cannot be fixed. But the files is really important to me. So I tried it in PAYAM and they solved it, though the fee is a little bit expensive ($690). I am happy with their service.

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

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

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.

My hard disk crashed and I lost everything. I took it to my local computer business that I deal with and they were unable to retrieve any of the disc contents. I had not backed up the disc for the past 8 months or more and had all of my work files as well as family photos and important emails that were lost. I sent the disc to PAYAM and they were able to retrieve all of the contents completely and at an extremely reasonable price. I had trouble retrieving one of the hidden files as I have limited knowledge in that area. I rang Kevin at PAYAM and he walked me through the steps that enabled me to access the file and retrieve the information. I found their service, advice and help to be excellent and would highly recommend them.

Stephen Todd January 22, 2018

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.

I had plenty of experience many years ago with he team, but changed between jobs since then. At my job we had a client destroy a ms surface, unfortunately they did not back up any data at all, everything that was potentially lost was business critical.
I suggested Payam and a co-worker called the Melbourne office in a frantic manner. The staff member we spoke to assured us that the service could be done, and if needed, Payam would have staff there working 24×7 to recover this data. All pricing was discussed and clear. After a bit of back and forth, somehow we ended up speaking to Payam himself, he was great! Such a passionate person to be able to answer a phone and speak directly with the customers he supports.
In the end it turns out we were able to turn the device on just long enough to get what we needed, although we didn’t end up needing the service, the entire team at Payam were still cheerful and happy to have spoken to us and be able to provide us with the best possible service. There is no one else in the business I would trust with my data! Thank you Payam and thank you to your team!

The shipping and payment process is simple and hassle free. This is a good, honest Australian company and the best at what they do

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!!

After taking my broken iPhone to two other places and being told the data was completely unretrievable, I then took it to Payam, where they were successful in retrieving ALL of my data! If anyone is looking to retrieve data definitely take it here first! Great service and very friendly staff. 10/10 would recommend it to anyone. These guys honestly saved my life!

Just when I thought I had lost everything on my Apple Phone. Apple couldn’t help with the issue of the phone not turning back on, so they sent me to Payam Data Recovery (Sydney). They explained the whole process on how it works and answered all my questions. I was so devastated as my main concern was all my photos of overseas memories, daughters wedding pics and so on..virtually my whole life on the phone but thanks to the professionalism and work of this company they retrieved everything back for me. I highly recommend Payam Data Recovery.

The team at Payam are absolute geniuses!! I had an 8 year old iPad that was broken beyond repair- I then lost the flash drive that I had backed up all of the irreplaceable photos of my son as a baby. As a long shot, last resort I contacted Payam. Albert has been fantastic, maintaining transparency, reassuring the team would do their best to recover the files and updating me throughout the entire process. In addition the recovery team at the lab were able to extract the data from my iPad. I am so incredibly grateful, it has truly lifted a weight off my shoulders. Thank you Payam for your invaluable work!

I rang payam about getting my recovered photos from my iPhone which includes very sentimental pictures of my children, i was quite emotional and the man I spoke to Albert dealt with my call calmly and kindly. I will be a loyal customer because of our conversation

Recovered everything on my iPhone (which hadn’t been backing up photos correctly) and actually returned the phone to working condition. (Payam specifically let me know that the phone may be destroyed in the process). Apple had informed me that I would absolutely not be able to get the phone fixed, but that a service like Payam might be able to get the data. It was fast, easy and they delivered far more than expected. I’m so happy. Thank you with all my heart.

Thank you so much! Payam data recovery truly has gone above and beyond. After dropping my iphone onto the pavement i thought i was dealing with simply a badly smashed screen. After taking it to Apple I was told that I had damaged it beyond just the display and had actually damaged the hardware internally which is why it couldn’t turn on. This was confirmed by a repair shop who also said that there was no chance of recovering the over 8 years of photos and videos that I had on there which had not been backed up anywhere. Payam received my phone on Tuesday morning and by Thursday night I had an email saying that my recovery was complete. Lesson learnt on not backing up your files, but thankfully Payam saved the day. I couldn’t be happier with both the result and the exceptional service.

In our experience with PAYAM, they were amazing. They were upfront and honest. Their communication was brilliant, keeping us in the loop the whole time without making false promises. As someone with a certain amount of tech background I understood that what you’re mainly paying for is the painstaking labour-time of highly trained technicians.

I took an iPhone XS that was salt water damaged as was told they are only ones able to recover if possible. I seriously doubted that it could be done as it was rusty and still had water in it 10 days later. Absolutely great professional service and the recovered it all very quickly.
I highly recommend Payam.

Amazing. I sent our DEAD iphone to them yesterday and it recovered today! Can’t fault them for retrieving all our lost, treasured images from our family holidays that were stupidly NOT backed up.

My Iphone died without warning or backup. This was stressful as my baby’s photos were on it from birth. I contacted Payam and spoke to Kane who was very helpful in answering any questions I had. Within a week of sending my phone to Payam my files were restored and sent back to me. Payam are very professional and easy to deal with which is very relieving in a situation like this. I highly recommend them.

I can not thank these guys enough!! I was travelling overseas with a group of friends taking photos on my iphone. Sadly, one of my friends lost his life overseas and on the second last day my iphone hardware malfunctioned and my phone turned into a brick, losing all our memories. I went to a shop who said it wasn’t their problem and I will never get my data back. THANKFULLY for the team at PAYAM Data recovery i was able to get back all of my pictures and nearly all the data was recovered from my phone. meant so much to me, such a lovely company always kept me up to date.

My iPhone died in its sleep and Apple said it wouldn’t turn on. It wasn’t backed up, as I’ve just come back from overseas. Within a week, Payam recovered ALL MY DATA!!!! There are no words to express the happiness and relief I feel. I am so happy with how they dealt with anything and can only ask that if you’re in a similar position, please, use Payam.

My images disappeared from my iPhone which distressed me. I couldn’t figure out how it happened. I went to the Apple store and they recommended that I contact payam.
I was worried at first that I would pay the non refundable fee and they wouldn’t be able to recover my data.
Within a week after I dropped my phone I got an email that they recovered my data.
I checked the recovered data and it was ALL there!! I was so HAPPY! Guys you are life savers! You recovered my memories! Thank you so much for everything!!

Spilled just a small amount of water on my iphone. Started off with the home button malfunctioning, black line on the screen and went black. Thought iphone was waterproof?The phone was actually still on as I was still able to call. None of the phone technicians I approached were able to fix it, neither did Apple. But thankfully I was referred to Payam. They managed to recover the entire thing on my phone, especially my baby’s photos from when she was born. I opted for the regular but I received the outcome within a week after they received my phone. Thank you so much for retrieving my precious photos, can’t thank enough!
