Payam recovered 100% of some crucial footage for our film shoot that was next to impossible to reshoot for our feature film project.

Total professionalism, great pricing and superb communication, if you need data recovery services, go to these guys first!

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.

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

I just want to thank the Payam team. You guys really took the time to recover all files from my faulty hard drive which has5 years worth of work on it. You recovered almost all of it and I couldn't be more happy. You kept in contact and always informed me what was going to happen. You guys are amazing, service is amazing! Highly recommended. Thanks again!

My life was on my external hard drive and when it wouldn't open I felt sick! I found Payam on an internet search and posted off my problem. My lack of a back up drive cost me, but I am very thankful that Payam recovered everything.

Aaron Garozzo

Very helpful and well mannered on the phone.

Ron Shaw

Very happy with what you were able to do. The Co-operation was exemplary, prompt and courteous. Thank you very much.

Rebecca Freiberg

I was very happy with the data recovery work performed!

Adina Sellin

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 suddenly encountered a problem with my portable HDD which became inaccessible. I have more than 500GB very important data on it. Thanks to the help from Payam Data Recovery, I finally got all my data back. This is really professional service with perfect output. I'm very satisfied.

Joseph Vitelli

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!

Tim Knaggs

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

Emily B.

Fantastic service from start to finish. Professional, fast and friendly. Thank you for saving us a lot of time, money and heartache from lost files. Kevin, you rock!!

Brad Corey

My hard drive suddenly stopped working. Visited several recovery companies and finally found Payam. Payam did a great job and recovered all my data. They also gave me a very reasonable price. Thank Payam!

MartyKuk

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.

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.

Ceasar Levine

I can only say wonderful things about my experience with Kevin at Payam. Kevin recovered all data on a USB drive - a happy ending. Thank you so much!

Grace Violet Hodder

I was very happy with the level of service provided to me. I found the frequent updates of the whole process of recovery particularly useful.

Victoria – Melbourne

A great service. We had told by another place (who had been otherwise really helpful at repairing the computer) that they could not retrieve the data. Craig at Payam not only recovered it all but then was so helpful at helping us reload it onto our new system. Very grateful for their service.

Aaron Hare

PAYAM has again recovered my files and work history within the time frame that i needed them back. I would recommend this service to anyone who thinks that their files are lost forever. Payam's knowledge and professional service make a distressing occurrence a walk in the park. Cheers Payam.

Aya Yamashita

I was super happy about my data recovery being done early this year. Kevin was very helpful and gave me a lot of advice. Thank you so much!

Hkang

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.

Piotr Sawi

Fantastic, professional and efficient service. I got a quote for unreadable disk data recovery the next day after delivering disk to the North Sydney Office. The disk belonged to one of my clients which came out of G5 mac and contained all the billing information of my client including outstanding accounts for over $30000 so they didn't know who to chaise for payments. Sure you can find cheaper services in Sydney or post your hdd overseas but would/could you risk it? In my case the answer was NO so I gave it to the best data recovery people I knew - PAYAM. I was not mistaken. The disk clone would not boot in a Mac due to damage caused by hard drive failing for a period of time and trashing system files but all the accounting data I needed was recovered 100%. Client was very happy and I was very happy too. Don't risk it. Leave it with Payam.

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 as lovely company always kept me up to date.

Dave Owens

We were very happy with the work done to retrieve the data. There was four years of company work that we desperately needed retrieved and it was done without any fuss

Sam Heylen

One happy customer! My wife's iPhone suddenly crashed and having not been backed up in over a year we thought we had lost all of her photos, videos etc including baby photos of our 3rd child. Apple said there was nothing we could do except try a data recovery place. Payam were fantastic from whoa to go. They recovered all the data and even provided an iTunes backup of the phone. Couldn't recommend them more highly. Thanks guys

Ook Tong

Because of this company, I was able to retrieve priceless videos & photos from my iPhone 5S, which was damaged from salt water contact. I took it to them several months after the water incident and they were still able to recover everything. Their service was top notch and I'd highly recommend their service!

Matthew Perovic

Great service and fast. High success rate on recoveries!

Eddy Hartnet

We thought we'd never see our photos again. We don't regret paying the money. We should recommend Payam to others and we are pleased that the job was done very quickly too.

Josh Dalt

Highly recommend Payam Data Recovery.

Craig was professional and extremely helpful, all of my data was recovered and I was kept informed throughout the whole process.

Don't think twice if you have a dead drive with lost information, Craig and his team will have it restored with little fuss and at a reasonable price.

Excellent Service - PAYAM successfully recovered 11 years of photos from my failed HD where others had failed.  Their service was professional and personable and worth every penny.

Reading the other reviews for PAYAM, I wasn't surprised at the string of praises and 5 star ratings...

Peter Macallef

The one thing that I valued most in my business life has been Customer Service. The customer service I received from Lachlan was extremely good, I knew what was happening at all times and the retrieval of my Photos was the highest priority and successfully achieved

Angus Keenan

Great customer service, and work time. When my sever crashed and looked to have lost my thousands of hours worth of work... They worked their magic and got 100% of my files back! Highly recommended! Great start to the week!!

Vaughan Chitty

Thank you, I am extremely happy with the data recovery work. I had tried two other computer repair places but neither was able to recover any of my data, Payam recovered the whole hard drive – very very grateful

Anika Parks

IMAC HDD failed, they got the data back fast, plain and simple. Pretty easy to get there (Queen street) Great service, Great guys! We recommend them highly!

Jamal

Brought in both my 2 TB Segate HDD's gave them to Mark at Payam Data Recovery in St Kilda where he only took couple of days to diagnose my problem which i found to be amazing as they had completely stopped working turns out a simple pcb fault on the drives was nothing that he could not handle and in only 2 weeks he managed to save all my files on both drives 100% for a cheap price i was so very impressed with the time and professionalism mark has showed every step of the way 10/10 would Highly Recommend this service.

Dominic – PC Dom

Not cheap but you get the quality recovery service you pay for.

Leon Ure

Payam managed to recover nearly all of my files, including non-generic formats, after the corrupted HDD was formatted and then another HDD was cloned over the top of it. I highly recommend Payam!

Jerry Nguyen

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.

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!

Tia Bates

A huge thank you to Paolo for recovering my severely water damaged iPhone! also the team at Payam was very professional, kind and awesome... so refreshing! After being told by two other technicians that there was no hope... Payam found a way!!! Paolo you must be acknowledge for your tenacious will to find a solution! I now have precious photos of my children and most recently of my newborn, which I thought I had lost forever... Words cannot explain my gratitude and will be forever grateful!! Thank you so much! with warmth

Larson Wolters

Required some Data from an old raid setup, the team at Payam are very helpful and efficient, kept me in the loop the whole way through the process. Great service would highly recommend!

James Bomalick

Your service were second to none and I couldn't be happier. I hope I don't need your services in the future, but in any case, I wouldn't hesitate to return and to recommend to other people. Keep it up!

Claire Ammerman

So thrilled you could get all of my baby photos back after my 2 year old dropped my Mac Book laptop on the ground. So happy I found you after my Apple guy said it was impossible. Awesome service!

Tony Peters

Our internal IT team could not recover the data from my hard drive and mentioned you guys as someone who might be able to help out. You did a great job and on time.

johngauci2000

Very professional, helpful and effective. I would highly recommend their data retrieval service. They recovered all my data and provided very useful advice. A number of sources recommended Payam as the best in the business and now I know why.

Erin

Fast Prompt and delivered what other companies said was impossible! High Recommended. I have been recommended their service to everyone in a similar situation. Can't fault their service.

Albert Spickler

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!

Mandy Mcqueen

Couldn't have asked for a better service, my hard drive couldn't be read by the computer technician, he then recommended Payam. I posted in the hard drive and received a phone call to confirm they had received it, then after only a few hours I received the call to say they could recover the data and gave me a free quote, I opted for the economy service, due to moving house, and was over the moon to hear after a few days that it was successful, they then arranged for the external hard drive and my old hard drive to sent back to me by courier. I would highly recommend Payam to anyone the service was fast, professional and I was keep up to date on progress throughout. Thanks for everything.

My Hard drive on my laptop died recently without any warning, as such I had to replace the hard drive but doing so I lost thousands of files being a small business I could never replace.
I connected with Payam, and they were so helpful on what needed to be done, and once they received my hard drive they more or less let me know every step of the way of the process. Once finished and they had retrieved 99.9% of my files, they sent me an email and SMS letting me know of the good news and a link showing the files that had been retrieved. I will be ever so grateful to them.

The BEST service ever. I was assisted by Tim. Tim has been absolutely amazing. From the start he was extremely informative about all the procedures and steps that would take place. His knowledge and skills are so incredible and advanced. He knows exactly what he is doing and advised me the best solutions along the whole way. He is highly experianced. He went beyond helping me understand data recovery and steps I could take in future in order to have a good backup.

My laptop (Macbook air) was fixed and I was able to receive 100% of my data back.

I am so happy with Payam ! The staff are incredibly nice.

I would highly recommend Payam to anyone who have broken their tech gadgets or are facing any issues.

BIG THANKYOU😊😊😊

I had 2 laptops that I needed data recovered from and Payam were so helpful! They got my data back from one of my laptops on the spot, and the other laptop was super fast too. They also provided good advice regarding warranty claims for the laptop and on ways to back up my data in the future. Can’t recommend them enough!
