Great service. Picked up same day. Didn’t get my videos but got most of my photos. Thanks
Fantastic people to deal with Totally honesty Kept me informed throughout the process, would have no hesitation in recommending them Martin C
Excellent, rapid, efficient and affordable service
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.
Very helpful, informative and genuine. My hard drive corrupted and almost all Of the files were saved. I can’t thank the team enough!
Did the job. Did it quickly. Communicated effectively. Some miscommunication occurred. Price was more than anticipated.
Couldnt have asked for more support
Thank you SO much for your great work in recovering my data from my USB memory stick. I had no recent backup (I know!!) and a lot of very valuable files which would have taken hours to rewrite. From the moment I spoke to Will, I began to have hope. No false promises, clear outline of costs, timescales and possible outcomes. Fortunately, I was one of the 97% "lucky" ones. All but 13 (unimportant) files restored and returned to me within 48 hours. So pleased I found you!! THANK YOU just doesn't do it really. Can only recommend you at every possible opportunity. x
Great service. Prompt and full recovery of data from my laptop hard drive.
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:)
Fantastic service and could not be more pleased with the results. They managed to recover precious photos of my son from my phone which I thought were lost forever. Could not be happier!
Excellent communication during the whole process. Was even able to have my device collected from my house and taken to the lab on the same day so the engineers could get started. All files recovered within 24 hours, couldn't be more grateful.
