expensive but value for money
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!
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.
Very helpful, informative and genuine. My hard drive corrupted and almost all Of the files were saved. I can’t thank the team enough!
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:)
Really helpful, clear pricing and great turnaround speed. Thank you to Andy and the team

Fantastic service. Saved so much data from our broken harddrive. Excellent communication. Totally recommend!
Fabulous service, they saved my bacon when I accidentally overwrote my 8,500 word lit review for uni. Super professional and speedy,they really went the extra mile for me. Worth every penny.
R3 successfully recovered 850Go of data from my failed hard drive in about a month. At first I was sent a file list that was only showing about half of the content, which scared me, but after sending further details and explanation the team was able to find everything I wanted. Each step was clearly explained to me and the communication was great. It's not a cheap service but it's a huge relief for me to have everything back. Now I'm copying all my data on 3 different drives + Cloud.
Excellent service. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Would have been 10 but very bad service from Parcelforce .
R3 were not only very knowledgable about Data Recovery; they also had very good customer service, giving us regular updates about the progress and 'holding our hands' through what could have been a very stressful time for our business.
