5* customer service. I cannot thank R3 Data Recovery enough. The team recovered all my photos and videos from a WD NAS drive. Would highly recommend, you definitely get what you pay for, Many thanks.
R3 data recovery was recommended to me after I had a major problem with data lost on a discarded hard drive. I had not backed up any of my data. R3 recovered data I needed and could not possibly have recovered without them.
best service ive ever had from any company- thank you so much for you help this year
Upon my first contact with the team at R3, they were helpful, informative and professional. I couldn't have asked for a more efficient and secure service. Any question I asked was responded to promptly and with due care and attention. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending their service and thank them immensely for the recovery they provided for me. My documents were/are so incredibly important to me and R3 Data Recovery managed to get the vast majority back for me. The email they sent outlining all they had recovered allowed me to breathe a huge sigh of relief. Thank you so much!
Super recovery of very important data from a very old memory stick. Superb communications and very simple effective work Greatly appreciated - life saving in fact
Knowledgable and friendly. Recovered 4000 pics from a dead Huwaei with swollen batteries and internal fault for me. Excellent professional service and communications.
Good service. Everything was fully explained throughout the process and any queries I had were promptly answered.
Efficient and almost 100% od data recovered .
After being told my hard drive was damaged beyond repair, I was recommended to use R3 data recovery. Nothing was too much trouble, always at the end of the phone and gave an amazing professional service. Highly recommend and a massive thank you to Andy Butler who went above and beyond at all times:)
Relieved to have the data back and the iPad apparently working. Early communication could have been more efficient but generally was ok. Greater clarity of file type - I expected something that could feed into Word or into my IPad. I was unaware that I needed another app to access the data.
R3 were able to recover all the files I needed from my hard drive. Communication was excellent, really quick, clear and efficient. I was very impressed with the level of service and felt reassured throughout the process.
Fabulous service, they saved my bacon when I accidentally overwrote my 8,500 word lit review for uni. Super professional and speedy,they really went the extra mile for me. Worth every penny.
