These guys know their stuff ! Great Service and Total Commitment to sorting out your problems. When I thought all was lost, they recovered everything, 1000s of photos and files etc, many that were irreplaceable ( and yes I know, everyone's going to back up their data.... one day ). Brilliant ! Highly recommended. Roj Duffy Preston

The team at R3 were really helpful, great level of communication and we got our family photos back!
Helpful Report
I was devistated when my hard drive stopped working. It had years of family photos that were irreplaceable. Fortunately we found R3 Data Recovery with a quick Internet search. We got a call back the same night I sent an inquiry to the web site. I appreciated the swift service and steady updates. It was a bit pricy, but worth every penny to get all of our pictures back. We are very happy with the services provided and I would certainly recommend R3 Data Recovery to family and friends. Thank you!

I can only say that the service I received from R3 Data Recovery was fantastic. They have an extremely calm professional approach rather than the hard sell take your money artists which I will explain first. I had previously sent my drive to another company Rapid Data Recovery who took my money up front, much more than they advertised, and after a week they declared it was impossibly to recover the data. They wanted to throw the disc out but I asked for it to returned which it was. The cover wasn't on the disc and there was a rattling sound coming from inside. I was not impressed. I contacted Andy Butler at R3 Data Recovery who offered to have a look. When they received the disc they reported they opened it up and found a loose screw in the platens and a fingerprint inside. This was not the clean room hotel I had been promised and this just confirmed that Rapid Data Recovery were a bunch of scam artists. NEVER USE RAPID DATA RECOVERY ( If there is a reference website I would be happy for this advice to be posted on) Back to R3 Data recovery. Their service was excellent. They kept me up to date. I was not in a hurry and they took their time to work on my disc when time was available. There task was more difficult because of the abuse the disc had received in the hands of the RDR bandits. Then I had the good news that they had managed to recover most of my family photos. What excellent news. The cost was more than I had expected but I felt my problem had been treated very professionally and I would recommend R3 DATA Recovery to anyone. I hope this of assistance when choosing who to use.

Such a professional service from start to finish. Kept me fully updated at each stage. Full recovery of my hard drive which surpassed all my expectations. Thank you to all the team . Raj Kumar.

Data recovered as promised, and collection and delivery of hard drive managed seamlessly. It's not a cheap gig - in the order of £500 for recovering the data from a 1TB external hard drive which had been dropped down the stairs, including couriering and a replacement drive - but R3's price seems competitive. Excellent customer service, a smooth, quick process, and a trustworthy company.

Wonderful service, though I hope never to need your skills again. I would recommend you to others.
Helpful Report
I had a NAS using RAID5 and two of the disks crashed at the same time. Andy was understanding and knowledgeable and R3 were able to recover my data within a week. I have no hesitation in recommending R3 when you need help to recover critical and important data.
Helpful Report
I work as part of a multi-disciplinary team covering design, PR, event management and digital media. We approached R3 when one of our external hard drives failed. They successfully diagnosed the issue and quickly provided a reasonably*-priced quote (*when compared to other quotes that we had received from other recovery firms). The speedy diagnosis and good news that our data was recoverable sealed the deal and within a week, we had our data back. Whilst not 'cheap', we consider it good value for money considering the work-hours needed to reconstruct the data/work that we would have lost. Overall, a speedy professional service with good results and value for money.
Helpful Report
Although the data seemed to recovered it seems that quite a lot of the headers have been corrupted and therefore are not playable. I am very disappointed with the final result.

Hi Caroline Thank you for your review. I am having the quality of the recovery reassessed to be sure we have done everything possible. Unfortunately with over 2TB of movies the quality of the original files before the 3TB Seagate failed could also be a factor. Andy Andy Butler Operations Director R3 Data Recovery
We were really happy end amazed about your efficiency of handling my work up until very last stage. Crucial mistake of not sending my recovery data in USB stick, you made us extremely unhappy customer. Which I think it was really shamed.
Helpful Report
Absolutely fantastic! Not a straight forward recovery at all, two drives in an old Windows Home Server format with data and architecture split across both. Mechanical failure on one drive and a number of bad clusters on the other. Without any quibbling or negotiation R3 honoured their original quote and had the drives back to me in a quicker than expected time frame. Hopefully none of my drives will fail again but if they do I wouldn't event look at anyone else in future!

I snapped off my USB stick from my laptop and my heart nearly stopped all my accounts and records and lots of other information was on it for my small business (self-employed driving instructor). My daughter found R3 Data Recovery on line and I filled in the online form that evening. I thought it would be the next day when I would get a reply however, within 20 minutes I had Stewart on the phone detailing what they could do and informed me of the cost and any additional cost if they proved necessary. So I knew exactly what the costs would be. It was so reassuring to have someone on the phone who knew what they could and would do. I was informed all the way through the next few days with emails and when it would be delivered back to me and it was within minutes of the start of the hour when the delivery people said it would be. I just cannot thank R3 Data Recovery enough although I am only a small business they knew exactly how important this was to me. I felt like I was their most important customer. Their service is just 1st class and highly recommend them. Malcolm Campbell Berwick upon Tweed

Outstanding service. Andy explained what he would do, investigated the problem with my hard drive and kept me informed throughout. Best service I've received to date from any data recovery specialist. I will now not go elsewhere

R3 did a fantastic job in recovering photos and music files from a La Cie external hard drive which had failed over 3 years ago. Realising some photos were not saved elsewhere, I got in touch with R3, who were recommended by the data recovery service our business uses. R3 not only recovered all files but made the process straightforward with great communication throughout. They were truly a pleasure to deal with.
Helpful Report
I was very impressed with the speed at which my initial inquiry was dealt with. The process was very carefully explained and I had a number of different options. My hard drive was collected within a matter of days and the communication throughout the entire process was excellent. Thank you so much!

Service was reliable & they even managed to recover all my data even when the stick was beyond repair.

This review applies to an 'old' Western Digital external hard drive that had the misfortune to fall off my desk and thus become quite temperamental when trying to access the data on it. A quick google search displayed several results (naturally!) but chose to go with R3 as they had a Scottish based office... although I think my drive actually ended up in Northern England!? A courier was used to come and collect my drive which I had packed extremely well to try and avoid any further damage! First reports back weren't good. Told that the drive itself was damaged but they would try to see what they could recover. Several emails and a few weeks later it transpired that the drive needed 'rebuilding' and thus the hunt was on for a donor drive of the exact same make/model. Well - it took quite some time (about 3 months in all) but it would appear that the repair worked as the much newer portable drive I sent away with the damaged one returned home yesterday courtesy of a next-day courier. Today I sat and went through the contents and yes - 12 years worth of photos and documents had been retrieved - along with quite a few MP3's (which I wasn't bothered about but got them back anyway!). While their communication might not be top class the results have leased me completely and have justified the spend - especially to get back all my wedding photos and those from a 'holiday of a lifetime' to Kenya... Thank you R3 for your hard work and perseverance with my drive...

Hi Neil Yes your old WD drive (WD2500JS-00MHB0) was struggling and despite the heads reading most of the sectors a rebuild was necessary. Fortunately we did find the correct donor and although slow to read the sectors eventually we had a complete image of the drive from which to recover the data. Despite the time taken we kept the cost down and focused on getting you a result, this is where we do shine. Total cost in this case was £334+vat including the donor, and a new drive for the recovered data. This was achieved thanks to keeping you on a budget service and using spare technician and equipment time. We are increasing our production capacity and adding more office space to accommodate new staff to improve customer services and handle more calls but our focus is always the recovery. All the best Andy The
Thank you so much to the whole team at R3 Data Recovery for getting ALL of my files back from my corrupted HDD. Great to see all of my work of so long was saved by you guys. I'm Truly grateful to your team! :) Bally Sagoo(music artist)

Excellent service, a full report was emailed over a few hours after R3 Data Recovery received the damaged device and I received the data the day after payment was made. Would highly recommend R3 Data Recovery. Thank you.
