These guys recovered 100% of my data…!! They kept me informed all the way and were very professional. A little bit expensive, but worth every penny. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and would happily use again.
Quick and easy process. very professional and all data was succesfully recovered from my device.
Fantastic service. Saved so much data from our broken harddrive. Excellent communication. Totally recommend!
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.
Couldnt have asked for more support
This is the second time I have used R3 Data Recovery in 10 years. Both times full fast recovery and was kept well informed during all stages of the process. This time is was after the failure of a 1TB internal hard disk. Collection and return of disk/recovery media fast and reliable. Although I hope not to have to use their services again I wouldn't hesitate if necessary.
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:)
Very fast and efficient. All data recovered and great at keeping in touch throughout the recovery.
These guys managed to save several years of professional work from a Drobo RAID system. Fast, efficient, calm service. Expensive but effective.
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.
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.
Really helpful, clear pricing and great turnaround speed. Thank you to Andy and the team
