Professional+++, good at what they do, fast efficient, delivery. Lost 10 years of family photos, everyone else said the data was unrecoverable. Highly recommended.

I am surprised to see how you recover the data and the good communication provided. Initially, I though the data would lost anyway. Keep up the good work guys.

After being quoted by a competitor almost double the price I decided to give these guys a go. Not only was I blown away by the helpful advice shown by the staff I was also relieved to hear that it was going to cost a fraction of the price original stated. These guys are the real deal! Unfortunately in this type of business there are many sharks that are eager to take advantage of people in a compromising position. I implore people to please shop around before rushing into anything and these guys for myself were by far the most helpful and best value for money. I highly recommend these people to anyone who has found themselves in the terribly difficult situation of losing valuable data.

Excellent service and in a timely manner – i.e. straight away. I would recommend these guys to anyone and I would definitely use them again should the need aver arise again which I hope never does!

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.

Coming back home from an overseas conference trip, the last thing I needed was to be greeted by a non-starting desktop. I was desperate to recover my data, especially my ‘just-completed’ tax return information! PAYAM was recommended by my local IT repair shop as well as by the work IT personnel. It was worth every penny! Service was excellent – fast (within a week), professional and complete (all data was recovered). I highly recommend PAYAM to anyone whose data may have been deemed ‘unrecoverable’ by other IT service providers.

Frequently asked questions

In all data recovery cases, success is not guaranteed. When we provide you your obligation free quote we will give you an idea of your success chances based on past recoveries that are similar to yours. Rest assured that when you use Payam Data Recovery, you have the highest chance of success!

If you have performed a quick format on the USB through your computer and have NOT written any data to the USB since the format, the chances of getting data back are good. If you write data to the USB after the format, that is when the previous data will start to be overwritten which significantly lowers your success chances.

Repairing the broken USB connector is part of our recovery process. Once the connector has been repaired, we would extract the data to a new external hard drive either provided by you or bought from us. If the connector is too damaged to repair, we would provide you a quote for a chip off recovery.

A chip off recovery is where we remove the memory chip that stores your data and either transplant the chip to another USB flash drive, or read the memory chip through custom made adapters and software. This is an extremely delicate process that needs to be executed perfectly so the chip is not damaged in the process. We perform chip-off recoveries every day for various devices so rest assured that we know exactly how to approach and execute these types of cases.
