Worked hard in recovering my important date
Very helpful, kept me informed throughout the process and recovered all data it was possible to recover. Very happy to have the photos back :-)
Excellent service! Excellent professionals!
Excellent service.
Superb - saved my life. So organised, communicative, efficient, diligent. Within 24 hours of collecting my fire damaged hard disk, they had retrieved all my data. Sincerely, thank you!
Just a message to say thank you so much for all the help you and your team have done to recover the photos from my wife's Corrupted sd card. She is so happy they're not lost forever. From start to finish your service has been 5stars
Superb service from R3 Data Recovery. Having stupidly deleted an external drive of all my files I called and Andy was of invaluable help. He went through different options and advised me on the one that would probably be the best for the issue I had. 24 hours later I have all of my data back where it should be. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Absolutely brilliant and bona fide company that does what is says in its company title. How important is your lost data to you??? Well if it means as much as it does to me and you are stupid enough to not have those back ups in place, then do not complain about the costs to recover them. Relatively speaking, was quite cheap considering there was 25 years worth of data recovered. I used my credit card on this failure on my part, but don't regret a single pound spent. Will and his team recovered the data from an old Linux system drive and put it onto a brand new one terabyte external hard drive for me ready to run under Windows. To all persons who need a reputable company and are trawling through various Google searches, this is the real deal and actually do their recovery on site. Hopefully you will never need to be in this situation, but if you do give them a call. Great interaction and regular updates throughout the process. Many thanks to all at R3 Data Recovery. John C.
Excellent service and everyone was very helpful and friendly. Cost was comparable to other companies and I considered it good value for money.
Great service. Picked up same day. Didn’t get my videos but got most of my photos. Thanks
Fantastic service, kept well informed throughout the process. All questions answered promptly. Sending Hard Drive easy, clear arrangements, likewise on return following data recovery. Many thanks to Andy, Will and Nick. R3 Data Recovery are the real deal in a sector where sadly too many scammers operate.
Excellent company to deal with. Highly professional and patient and no pressure to get the files. The only company to do it. All other ones are scams.
