Every review below comes from a real customer who trusted R3 with their data. These stories reflect real challenges, real recoveries, and the work our engineers do every day.
Very fast and efficient. All data recovered and great at keeping in touch throughout the recovery.
Excellent service both in recovering data and after sales service. Frankly the price for the service is irrelevant when faced with loss of essential data. Delivery was prompt and efficient.
These guys managed to save several years of professional work from a Drobo RAID system. Fast, efficient, calm service. Expensive but effective.
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.
Fantastic service. Saved so much data from our broken harddrive. Excellent communication. Totally recommend!
My hard drive full of every family photo for the last 20 years died. It also contained every document I had saved in that time. A hard drive full of very sentimental files such as photos of my children being born. Devastated at the prospect of losing all of this data, I set about finding a recovery service. So many providers had patchy reviews and didn't look legit until I came across R3. The service was very smooth and 99.9% of my data was recovered. Just 12 files could not be recovered out of 77,000!
Efficient polite service
Quick and easy process. very professional and all data was succesfully recovered from my device.
Very helpful, informative and genuine. My hard drive corrupted and almost all Of the files were saved. I can’t thank the team enough!
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.
Efficient-Rapid-Sucessful! I don't know how bad my external hard drive was but I know I needed the data recovered. I tried a local company and they were no help at all. These guys had the job sussed in a matter of days and a cost-effective proposal that suited me perfectly. Once agreed, the job was completed quickly and I'm back in touch with all my data. Thanks very much!
I accidentally overwrote my Masters portfolio literature review. I rang R3 data retrieval in the morning and Andy was amazing and managed to retrieve it for me within the day. Best money I ever spent, excellent service and customer care. 10/10 would recommend.
