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!
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!
Amazing service. Don’t waste money and make matters worse by purchasing online options or software. These guys will sort it, if it’s at all possible. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
These guys were really professional and straight forward. Highly recommend their service if you have old hard drives that you think have died and need resurrecting
Excellent service very helpful from start to finish
Excellent service highly recommended
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.
Great service, very helpful and honest. Got all my data back with regular updates and great communication. While princely it is definitely value for money - saved hours of work and worry
Amazing Service, spoke to the MD. He explained the process involved with the data recovery. Certainly much cheaper than other data recovery services I have used in the past and customer service is far better. The turnaround was quick too. I highly recommend R3 Data Recovery
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!
Excellent service
