Great service. Prompt and full recovery of data from my laptop hard drive.
Good service. Everything was fully explained throughout the process and any queries I had were promptly answered.
Excellent service.
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.
Very fast and efficient. All data recovered and great at keeping in touch throughout the recovery.
Great team, extremely helpful! They recovered my failed drive several years ago, and were able to help me again when I mislaid the password to the recovery drive they sent me. Stuart took the time while I was on the phone to make sure the password was correct and that the drive would open, and it worked first try! Live savers!
So after 20+ years of chancing my luck with no data backup my laptop one day wouldn't turn on. Slightly worried I bought another laptop and fitted the drive to transfer the data. But oh no that was dead. After looking around and reading reviews I messaged R3 late one Saturday night. 5 mins later I had a reply! Very professional and had all.my data recovered in the quoted time. I can't praise them highly enough. Of course I now have a nas drive and second backup of all my data.
I was sceptical that R3 could recover the encrypted data from my Android phone. I shouldn't have doubted them, their service was quick and efficient. Very gratefull - thank you.
Excellent service
Couldnt have asked for more support
The R3 Data Recovery team are outstanding in every way, going above and beyond in all areas. Communication was great, making time outside of working hours to explain the situation and their plans. They worked tirelessly to get a positive outcome and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who needs their help.
Excellent service and fast return of precious family photographs that could have been lost forever. We are very grateful. Thank you.
