Recovery after hard drive manufacturer essentially gave up

published

Accessing the disk responded with “Error”. I opened a ticket with the disk manufacturer’s tech support, and was told to run a utility that “could take up to 3 hours”. It was still running 20 hours later! I rang Payam, and spoke to Keith. He’s on the technical staff, and exuded a calm, confident, professionalism.
I opted for the standard service, but got an email saying the job was complete after only a few days. Fortunately, almost everything on the disk was recovered.

Thanks Keith for an excellent job. A pleasure to award 5 stars.

Stole iPad + overcharged + less than 10% recover - AVOID

published

Horrible experience- they stole my iPad saying that can’t find it, charged $650 but when I opened the first - only few photos.
Naturally, they became very difficult to communicate after stealing iPad and money.
Apple rep said they are known SCAM
Avoid - I suspect all the good reviews are not real

very professional from start to finish

published

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

Coming back from a holiday where I dropped my Iphone 4 with all vacation pics into a pond, I came back and took my phone to PAYAM Data Recovery. Paolo Bileci from Payam was great and told me what needed to be done to retrieve lost data and it was very quickly as well! Highly recommend this place to everyone!

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.

Completely satisfied customer.

I honestly can't thank them enough. My phone was smashed beyond recognition. It had all the photos and videos of my daughter's first year of life. I was absolutely devistated. They originally said it was too damaged to recover anything but they'd be happy to keep it Incase new technology became available in the future that could help. They never gave up and I got the best news ever. They were able to recover my data. Couldn't be more greatful

Extremely satisfied customer

PAYAM is first class for professionalism, communication, rapid service and most importantly data recovery.
Bought an 6 TB external hard drive from another company and after loading all my photos (1 TB) into this drive, it crashed. I had no time to backup as it crashed within 2 weeks of purchase.
Within one week, thanks to PAYAM, I had all my photos back. I am so grateful to this company and the cost was fair.

Photos are priceless moments and I couldn't imagine losing it forever. It's nice to know your photos are back. Please don't forget to back up your files and make sure the back up is working.

Urgent Data Recovery done and dusted

published

Contacted the team about recovery of data from a failed RAID Array, extremely helpdul over the phone.
Organsied Airfreight to have the drives shipped from interstate, they were straight onto the recovery. Let me know at avery step what was happening and where the recovery process was up to. We purchased two drives for the recovered data to be sent back which had to be done in a few hours as we had organised pickup and next flight return of the data. Extremely helpful, nothing was too hard even with our specific freight & time constraints. Cannot recommend the team and service highly enough.

Customer service not great

published

I’ve been trying to get in touch for a quote for a few weeks now to no avail. Have made multiple accounts attempts and not had any contact back at all. Disappointing as i really need data recovery services and read good reviews about this company but will no longer be trying to contact them.

Excessively expensive

published

$1500-$3500 to recover data off a HD for a standard head failure is excessive! The pricing is disproportionate to the work involved, try elsewhere before they extort you for your data back.

Total Recovery 15 years of photos

published

My thanks to Kane at Payam, Brisbane who recovered 15 years of photos, plus all other data (which I had never backed up) when my MacBook Air totally died. Amazingly, Payam offer free quotes. My then fear that this quote would be unaffordable for such a small job from an obviously very professional business, was completely unfounded. Within 2 days I had an external hard-drive containing all my data. I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

No data recovered

published

No complaints about the service or speed of action with Payam, just be aware that for your $500 like me you may not get any data back. My external hard drive had a head crash that damaged the platters, not that unusual problem if you drop the hard drive. They are up front about the cost and risk that you will get no data back Anyway better that you know that it is a real possibility that your $500 will not result in any data.

No guarantees if you are the unlucky 1% like me!

published

No data received back at all. $500.00 down the drain plus postage of the device to them. No guarantees if you are the unlucky 1% like me. Owner of the company requested I remove my Facebook review of 2 stars. Now I understand why there is only such good feedback when you check reviews. If they truly only cannot retrieve data on 1% of devices then shouldn’t the company be willing to wear that 1% & offer a refund if no data is retrieved? On a plus the company did communicate well throughout the whole process. I was just unlucky & didn’t receive the desired outcome despite parting with $500.00.

I had a water damaged iphone that I was told from Apple and a phone repair place that I had lost my data forever. I was really down at the thought I had lost all my pics of my 6mth old and my toddler. I had one last hope when I read the reviews from Payam. After speaking with them my mind was at ease and I thought I just may get everything back. And I wasn't disappointed. After 3 days I had an email telling me they had recovered pics, videos, contacts etc. My Christmas has come early. Thank you to all staff at Payam. You did a wonderful job. And will recommend you to all my friends.

Hi Im currently locked out of my iPhone. Ive now fully disabled it because I kept guessing the code.
Ive never backed the phone up before on iTunes and I dont have iCloud .. could you help me?

PayamPayam Data Recovery

Hi Nikita, I'm so sorry this happened to you, I'm sorry but due to security measures on iPhones, we have no way to unlock/remove the disable lock on any new model iPhones - we used to be able to do it on the older iPhones (e.g iPhone 4) but nothing newer. This is the only company we know who can do it, but they only do this for police/law enforcement agencies. We use their tools but no private company can use this part of their tools.

Jo K.asked

Hi this is just me being too anxious though I have submitted my iPhone 8+ to Payam. I am in no hurry to get it done, but the waiting is just draining me mentally of not knowing whether my photos could be recover or not.

So my case is that my iPhone 8+ shows the iTunes logo with cable on the screen. Tried to update it both on Mac and Windows and trying to find compatible software, it just could not work. It shows error 14 and probably its because my phone got no more memory (though, i already cleared up some space). I am just asking whether there is still a hope in this case, although after downloading the IPSW for the updates on iTunes, it still said you must reset it to factory setting, in which I do not want bcs it will erase all my data.

Please help me and take your time to help me recover my photos.

So my iPhone 7 was completely dead.. The team at payam recovered all my photos and data which I'm so thankful for. My iPhone is now working again after receiving it back. I know in the email they said phone might be temporarily fixed... I was going to apple in the morning to get replaced but now it's working. How long is the temporary fix they did? Do you think Apple will still replace?
