Data Recovery Customer Reviews

Excellent service. They managed to save my family photos and kept me updated with each stage of the process

I researched HDD recovery companies to death before settling on Lazarus for my recovery needs. What I liked was their simple pricing structure. I'd read too many horror stories of companies giving a 'guide price' and then the actual bill being much higher.

The booking process was simple, and they'd started the recovery the day my HDD arrived with them! They kept me informed and updated throughout the entire process and recovered all my data from the dead drive, turning it around in approximately 3 weeks.

Fantastic service and I'm delighted with the outcome - obviously I hope to never have to use Lazarus again (backup backup backup!) but should I need to, I won't be going anywhere else.

Thanks to Laura, John and the team - if anyone requires data recovery services, I highly recommended Lazarus.

I had to arrange the recovery of an internal laptop drive for a friend who (I later learned) had spilled liquid on the computer and then used a hairdryer to try and bring the drive back to life. She didn't hold out much hope for it, but after sending the drive off to Lazarus I received a message within the hour of arrival saying they would conduct their first pass recovery test (the cheapest, which it failed), quickly followed by the second pass test (considerably more expensive, also failed). They were finally obliged to go to their most assiduous recovery process, and within a few days I had the drive back, a full recovery having been accomplished.

I chose them because their fixed prices were competitive and their website projected an honesty and clarity about the process which was reassuring. The contact was also rapid, open and empathetic, and while I realised the whole process could take a long time, I was over the moon to have the drive back within a week. Hope to never have to use them again, but they would be a first call if I did!

Big thanks to Lazarus Data Recovery for saving the vast majority of data from the failed hard drive in my laptop which I had removed, taken apart, lost the manufaturers label (which is very important for identifying what donor parts are compatible etc) and generally 'butchered' having followed a 'Youtube' tutorial on how to fix a hardrive head.

Against all the odds; John, Laura and the engineer managed to use some guess work on their advanced plus service, fit a head from a donor device and recovered all but a handful of small and unimportant files.

I can't recommend Lazarus highly enough to anyone who needs a data recovery service.

(I definitely don't recommend the Youtube tutorials that make this out to be an easy task that can be done from home!!).

I am most grateful to John and the Lazarus team for retrieving precious photos and memories that I'd lost on a hard drive that was malfunctioning.

Having extensively researched the internet for suppliers and seen previous reviews left, I was delighted at just how competitively priced Lazarus is. Some competitors charge as much as *eight* times more. Having spoken to John, it was pleasing to hear his belief of how data recovery should be available to everyone.

I was pleasantly surprised that having sent my damaged hard drive off on a Monday and expecting a two-week turnaround, I received my lost data before the weekend began - magic!

Lazarus is very much a professional set-up: A clearly laid out charging structure with options to adapt to what you want (who organises the post each way? who provides the replacement hard drive? - it's all covered); regular status update notifications; a courtesy call to explain the outcome and answer any queries I had.

A must-have contact for anyone despairing how to access their lost data again. For the price and reassurance, it's just not worth bothering with recovery software (which, in my experience, rarely works...). Save yourself the time and repeated disappointment and get these guys on the job - you won't regret it.

Had a hard disk fail with all my kids baby photos on! I had taken the drive else where with no joy so thought all was lost. Lazarus managed to recover all the data. They kept me up to date on all aspects of the recovery, and I had my files back in less than 5 days.

They are friendly and professional and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Great service. I have had mixed experiences with data recovery centres but Lazarus are very professional and helped recover my data files. I highly recommend them.

A client had 2 hard drives fail simultaneously with some valuable data and memories on both. Unfortunately the drives had failed in such a way that required extensive work including replacing the heads of the hard drives. Lazarus kept me up to date throughout the process and after several weeks all the data was recovered successfully.

These guys are superstars and I will not hesitate to use them again.

Very friendly team that always kept me up to date every step of the way. Very reasonable prices especially with them offering a blue light/defence discount. Overall, super happy with the service and special thanks to John who handled my case and answered all my questions quickly. Definitely would use again.

These guys were fantastic getting data out of my MacBook that had wine damage (😬). Took it to a number of specialists who said it couldn’t be recovered, so I was amazed how quick Lazerus recovered the data! 5 ⭐️ recommendation and great on cost

I cannot thank John and the team enough for what they have done in managing to save the majority of our precious photos.

Yes as a customer I know I am paying for a service but they have made that service something that I thought could have been extremely painful, comforting in a professional manner and with empathy and support throughout.

We did go out and speak to other companies to try to resolve our loss and failure in hard drive, some of those being extremely large companies that offer both commercial and personal services, but none felt like they understood the importance of this data loss that Lazarus did.

I've recently had a failed external Hard drive that Lazarus Data Recovery were able to do an excellent job of recovering data on. Their approach is very professional. John and the team provided excellent customer service throughout the process and the volume of data recovered was impressive. Also, their rates are very reasonable. A first class service and highly recommended.

Brilliant clinic, knowledgeable, cheap and really really good when it comes to data recovery from physically damaged storage devices. Been using them for years and my customers are happy. High rate of success!

Fabulous service from Lazarus Data Recovery who agreed to take a look at my external hard drive which, I had been told was too badly damaged to recover any files. Within a few days all my files had been recovered and sent back to me on a new external hard drive.

So grateful to John at Lazarus. Right from booking our hard drive in for collection to recover list photos - communications and expectations throughout the process and the final outcome have been exceptional. Would highly recommend - friendly, simple, good value and turn around time.

Excellent service and the staff are fantastic. The prices are just unbelievable. Can't recommend them enough

I have used Lazarus Data Recovery for my business on multiple occasions and the service is faultless. They are very Knowledgeable and keep you informed every step of the way. I would not go anywhere else.

Fantastic service. Ended up costing less than half I was quoted elsewhere, clear communication. Prompt turnaround, impossible to fault.

If in doubt just call these guys! we run a small business and our NAS (used as a server) stopped working and data unreadable, even though mirrored we were extremely worried all was lost including accounts. One phone call and three days later we have recovered data ready to go on a mass storage device. Again don't stress just call John.

We've used several data recovery companies as part of the trade over the last 15 years and have been amazed at the appalling conduct of many of the players in this field - Companies that openly hold your data hostage, or else do a fair job but don't charge a fair price. We started using Lazarus a couple of years ago and have been consistently impressed at their professionalism, the high ratio of successful recoveries, and also the very reasonable prices that they charge. We wouldn't go anywhere else for data recovery.

We contacted Lazarus to help with data recovery from a MacBook.
The MacBook had water spillage and in turn wasn't functioning.
It held over 2 years of university work, some of it was saved to the cloud however there was some that wasn't.

Within hours of contacting Lazarus they arranged to see the MacBook, within 24 hours they flagged that they could recover all the data.
Which they did, we collected the USB stick and sure enough all the data is there.

I want to say a big Thank You to the team at Lazarus, to recover the data meant a lot of hard work was saved.

The data recovery gurus at Lazarus were able to recover all my files on a corrupted external drive and transfer to a new drive. This was done efficiently and at a very reasonable price. Communications and customer service was also top notch. I highly recommend these guys and will use again without hesitation!

Excellent service and quick turnaround. I was devastated when I lost 20yrs of data recently and though it was gone forever.

Lazarus provided excellent customer service and reassured me it could be retrieved. I will be recommending their services.

Many thanks again.

What a great service!!! Communicated well all the way through, transparent and up front about any potential issues and very friendly too!

Really happy I went to Lazarus. If I ever need this service again, I’ll be back here without hesitation. Thank you so much

Like many others I had backed up home videos of my children on an external hard drive.

Unfortunately last week my external hard drive completely crashed and did not connect to my pc, laptop, tvs or 4k player. I was extremely upset at thought that I had potentially lost all video footage of my children when they were babies / toddlers. To me and my family this footage was absolutely priceless.

I had never used a Data Recovery Company in the past and just came across Lazarus Dara Recovery whilst searching on Google.

I have to say my experience with them was amazing. I phoned them and spoke to “John”. He was extremely professional and honest about his pricing and did not give me false hope but promised he/ his team would try their best.

I then signed up with Lazarus via their website and a courier turned up the next day with a tote bin. He took my hard drive and secured it infront of me before leaving.

I was then kept updated throughout the process via numerous text messages and emails. I received a text message and email informing me they had received the hard drive. I then received further messages to say they had commenced work on it.

I then received a call from John to say they had recovered all the data including all video footage and photographs.

John was so honest that although they had 3 price ranges he charged me the lowest amount of £120 because he said luckily the hard drive was not too badly damaged and they found the the data after a quick bit of work. He could have easily have charged a higher amount but he didn’t which says a lot about their professionalism, ethics and honesty which are hard to come by these days.

After making the full payment of £120 plus a little extra for a new hard drive (which was my choice) I then received all my data via courier within 48 hours. They even password protected the new hard drive for security (which they sent via text message).

I don’t normally write reviews but just felt that I had to as the service I received was FIRST CLASS. They were extremely professional and honest throughout and I simply could not fault them. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who has lost any data.

Thank you to John and his engineers once again!

Great and efficient service - recovered all the data needed. John was extremly helpful

I owe John & the team at Lazarus a heck of a lot! After my recent wedding one of the SD cards that was used inside a GoPro had become corrupt and I wasn't able to access any of the video footage from it. I tried a lot of online software to try and recover the footage but none of them managed it. Lazarus was really my last chance of getting the data back and they made it all seem easy. Thankfully John & the team managed to recover the video files within 24 hours so I'm hugely in their debt! John was great to deal with and I was given progress updates throughout the process. Lazarus offer a professional service, at a very good price, I'd definitely recommend them for anyone in need of data recovery - even if you're nearly giving up hope!

I don't often leave reviews but John & team from Lazarus have done such a good job! I was devastated when my hard drive & a backup drive both failed, containing a year's worth of research, product design and development for my business. I really didn't have high expectations, but they managed to restore everything I cared about! Am so relieved and grateful. I'm even making a 2nd backup of the drive they provided, just in case. I hope to never need their service again, but if I do... I know they'll get the job done! It was also excellent value for money, for data that is priceless. Thanks again!

A very professional company, kept me in the loop at all times and provided me with any information I needed.

Amazing service from John. Kept updated throughout the whole process and the pricing was extremely transparent. They managed to recover all of my data from my external hard drive which was a huge relief. Cannot recommend Lazarus more!

They are an excellent company. My external hardrive with a lot my music files stopped working; I called around to different companies and was quoted extortionate prices I simply couldn't afford. After online research found out about Lazarus Data Recovery and aren't I glad. John was helpful and honest throughout the whole process and at no point did I feel like I was being over charged or swindled . After 2 weeks tehy managed to retrieve 90% of my data at very reasonable price! Trust me this the place to go with, very much doubt you'll find a more efficient pocket-friendly service elsewhere!

First class service. Recovered photos going back 15 years from broken external drive. Some very precious memories we thought we had lost forever. Efficient, responsive and great quality - definitely use again.

They restored a disk which was originally unrecoverable due to head and board issues. Very happy. They were also wonderful to deal with very personable. Thanks

Highly recommended - thank you to the team at Lazarus for recovering most of the files on my failed hard drive (representing years of photographic work). It took a while as my drive proved quite a challenge to access but Lazarus kept me in the loop with regular updates & I was delighted with their service which was at all times professional, helpful and for a reasonable price too (with no hard sell unlike some other companies I contacted at first)

Fantastic service after our hard drive stopped working and we thought we had lost 10+ years of precious photos and videos of our children. We were kept informed by email and had a very quick turn around time. Thank you so much.

I have sent several devices to Lazarus Data Recovery for recovery and have been extremely impressed with the services and skills that they offer. I especially like the fact that the prices they advertise are the prices you have to pay - no hidden extras. They are also very efficient and respond quickly. Very highly recommended.

I was really lucky to have come accross this company through Vlad, their partner technician from Birmingham. They recovered thousands of my precious family photos from the broken removable hard drive, all bar just 10 files. The whole process took a few months due to a difficulty in sourcing a suitable donor drive for parts, but Vlad was getting regular updates from them and kept me up to date with the progress and I trusted them fully that the job would be completed to my full satisfaction. I have collected both the old and the new drive with my files from Vlad, it was nicely packaged and I am very pleased with the result. Highly recommend, reasonably priced, reliable and trustworthy computer experts. Thanks a lot!

I cannot thank these guys enough i had a internal hard drive which just gave up with about 19 years worth of data and photos in little over a week i got all of my data back for which I'm very grateful i wouldn't hesitate to either use these guys or recommend them.

The other thing thing is there pricing system once you hand the goods over to them they gave me updates on what's going on and the best thing overall is my recovery was only the standard price for which i was very happy

As other company's may have tried to charge more than needed but Lazarus just charged what was needed i also made there life a little difficult as i pulled the description off the front of the drive .

But they as a company did a professional job

ONCE AGAIN IM VERY HAPPY AND GRATEFUL FOR THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME

Outstanding service. Very professional and such a smooth and good value service.

A few weeks ago, my latent fear occured in that the hard drive on my computer (with thousands of photo images) "crashed" and I thought that I had lost the lot.

I spoke to John at Lazarus and explained exactly what happened. Although not certain, he expressed cautious optimism that the data could be saved. The hard drive was collected in a secure box and the next day I was informed of its arrival.

Four working days later, he phoned me to say that all 750 Gb had been saved and transferred to another external hard drive and two days later it was back with me.

All in all, a fantastic company and I can't praise them more highly.

Thank you, John and everyone at Lazarus. A very appropriate name!

8 years of family photos and videos recovered from a damaged external hard drive, collected on Thursday returned on the following Tuesday.

Amazingly fast service, for less than half the multiple £300+ quotes we had received from other recovery companies.

Extremely helpful in terms of organising collection in the middle of lockdown, great follow up after the drive and data were returned.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Lazarus for their courtesy and competence (especially Laura and John)!

Had two hdd's in a very very poor condition and Lazarus Data Recovery managed to get a significant amount of data recovered! From the start it was all great. There live chat was very helpful and answered all my concerns. The hdd's were picked up next day by DPD (big plus there, convienent knowing your timeslot), and from then on was kept upto date on what was happening. Once recovered, it was delivered the next day! Would reccomend to anyone!

Brilliant both times we've used them, and very reasonably priced given the competition. Highly recommended.

Absolutely excellent service, seamless process, collection from your home address, quick and easy payment via PayPal. On top of the great service they were over £500 cheaper than a national data recovery firm. Highly recommended.

Do you know that feeling when you choose something and you just know it's the best choice you could have possibly made? Lazarus is exactly that - the best decision you can make when faced with an unfortunate situation. You're basically ordering the most amazing dish at a restaurant you'd rather not be at in the first place.

They managed to recover the most important files from the past 6 years of my life, when I thought I would never get to see the photos again./

It took a little over a week for an Advanced recovery and I was able to track everything online. Lazarus was clear, friendly, accommodating, professional, proactive, and basically offered a flawless service from start to finish. As a non native speaker I get nervous calling up companies so it's important to mention how nice and patient John was - I'm really grateful for that - and the emails from Laura were just as pleasant.

The price looks unbeatable, especially considering the technology they use (and the gorgeous Dutch barn where the lucky broken hard drives get to spend some time). I probably won't be living in the UK for much longer but should this happen to me again, I would absolutely go out of my way to get this team to work on my drive or whatever I manage to mess up next. Thank you!

Thanks to Lazarus Data Recovery for recovering files from an old external hard drive that hadn't worked in years. Very impressed with the level of service I received. Would definitely use again / recommend to others.

Highly recommend this company, they saved my lost data, kept me informed of the process and potential costs, also due to lockdown they couriered my data dirext to my house. Very impressed by this service!

Flawless service - John and his team managed to recover my data and kept me updated all the way through the process. This alone would deserve a five stars review, but on top of this, their prices are very reasonable.

Hopefully I won't be needing a data recovery service any time soon, but if I do, I'll be sure to use them.

Great recovery service, John and the team have got me out of trouble with 2 hard drive failures. Both times price reasonable and service and communication fantastic. A life saving business !!!!

Excellent service all round. Clear, honest communications. Great value. Cannot recommend highly enough.

After searching the Internet for data recovery company's, Lazarus was the only company I found that offered a fair, clear and transparent data recovery service. All of the the other companies listed on Google were very unclear especially when it came round to pricing, some take advantage of this ambiguity and after analysis they often quote very expensive prices for data recovery, some often charge in excess of £400.

Lazarus managed to successfully recover most of the data on my HDD hard drive, I required a advanced recovery as my hard drive had taken some damage and was not being recognised by my PC. I found Lazarus to be very professional, responsive and transparent. They dealt with my recovery very quickly and I am very happy with the service they provided and would highly recommend them. Like I said they are the only company I found who offered, clear, transparent and standard prices for data recovery, £100 for a basic recover and £250 for an advanced recovery, and in the event your data could not be recovered you would not be charged.

There prices and service cannot be matched by some of the biggest data recovery companies. Overall I would highly recommend Lazarus Data Recovery.

Found these people on line and chose on reviews and price. I had quotes for between £200 and £400 to recover some data from a drive that I could not get to show in Windows or DOS. Lazarus were much better value so I gave them a try, especially as they don't charge if they can't get the data back.

Process was really simple, dropped the drive at a local parcel handler, I was emailed at every stage, then got a call from them explaining what had been found, explaining the way forward. I got the drive back, all the data was on a USB drive I had sent (and it was password protected), all within a week.

This company does what it says it will do, effectively and with great communication, all at a great price, I will be using them again.

I dropped my external drive that had nearly 50000 tracks on it - disaster! I took it to a local "specialist" who had it for 6 months and then pronounced it unrepairable. As a last hope, a friend recommended Lazarus Data Recovery. I sent it in February and have just had it back July - with COVID in between that wasn't bad at all. They managed to get about 90% of the data back and would probably have rescued the lot if I hadn't sent it to another "specialist" before. Well priced and a great service and I would recommend them most highly.

Fantastically efficient and friendly service at a great price. They recovered all of my data. Can’t recommend highly enough.

A client had 2 hard drives fail simultaneously with some valuable data and memories on both. Unfortunately the drives had failed in such a way that required extensive work including replacing the heads of the hard drives. Lazarus kept me up to date throughout the process and after several weeks all the data was recovered successfully.

These guys are superstars and I will not hesitate to use them again, either personally or for my clients.

Well, they recovered all my lost data. Just what they said they would do. No, its not cheap, but thats the price for failing to back up my data. Highly recommended

I was advised by a local data recovery company that my files were unlikely to be recoverable as my external hard drive had too much damage. I was given a quote in excess of £1000 and a timescale of 3-6 weeks. I was seriously considering calling it a day and managing without my data but all my photographs were on there so I persevered and was signposted to Lazarus. Practically ALL my files were recovered and put on a new hard drive which was back with me in 3 days, for less than £500. To say that I am grateful is the understatement of the year. I truly cannot thank Lazarus enough.

Really pleased with the service from Lazarus. I didn’t know what to expect to be honest, but had a horror of loosing all our photos and the last 10 years of my working life!! From booking the hard drive collection, updates on progress, quotes for recovery and general communications everything has been excellent. Friendly, simple, good value and quick turn around time. Data recovered, returned and lesson learned. Phew!! Highly recommend.

I can’t begin to thank you enough for the recent recovery you carried out on our drive. The patience and effort you put into sourcing a donor drive was above and beyond our expectations.

I know that in your eyes 50% recovery is far from ideal, but in my eyes it’s amazing given that we’d been told by the manufacturers recovery service that nothing was salvageable and I was resigned to it all being gone forever.

You’ve given us back so many family photos and videos that I’d thought were lost forever - including my daughters first steps.

Thank you, I only wish we’d found you when the hard drive was first damaged.

The data recovery gurus at Lazarus were able to recover all my files on a corrupted external drive and transfer to a new drive. This was done efficiently and at a very reasonable price. Communications and customer service was also top notch. I highly recommend these guys and will use again without hesitation.

Great service from John at Lazarus.

Efficient, helpful and prompt service - but above all an honest company who, in my opinion, can be trusted. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lazarus for all the right reasons!!

All the data on my failed external hard drive has now been recovered.

8 years of family photos and videos recovered from a damaged external hard drive, collected on Thursday returned on the following Tuesday.

Amazingly fast service, for less than half the multiple £300+ quotes we had received from other recovery companies.

Extremely helpful in terms of organising collection in the middle of lockdown, great follow up after the drive and data were returned.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Lazarus for their courtesy and competence.

Thank you so much!!! What a fantastic service. My hard drive suddenly stopped working with 7 years of precious photos and memories. Numerous local PC people had looked at it and all advised the same - that it would need to go to a data recovery lab to have a chance of being recovered. Lazarus were by far the most reasonable quote even at the worst case scenario price. I was still sceptical despite reading many good reviews as I had been scared of reading about scams etc. I decided it was worth the risk as they won’t take payment until they’ve recovered your files. I honestly cannot fault the service. They quickly arranged a courier to collect the hard drive and kept me informed at each stage. My hard drive required advanced recovery which I was fully prepared for (although didn’t require a new head which was a pleasant surprise.) They found all but 9 of 22,000 photos. The service was quick, professional and so reasonable at £225 + the cost of a new hard drive. Absolutely amazing. Thank you again for restoring all of my photos

Great service and prices. Kept notified every step of the way. Will definately use again in future. Recommended.

Looking online you will find 100s of companies offering data recovery and every single company promises you that they will recover your data with no issues.

30 seconds into my telephone call with Lazarus I knew that I would send ths SSD to them. Not only are their prices the best out there (also they don't charge if they can't recover) but they didn't even attempt to promise me a 100% fix (that is some confidence to worried computer users).

I could go on and on about the importance of data recovery and horror stories of how other companies "attempt to fix it" for more than a months salary. But honestly its easier to just say go with Lazarus.

If you ever question this I would gladly 100 times over speak to you and tell you to go with them. They recovery 1000s of pictures of my grandmother and other family events that would be completely lost otherwise.

I would like to say a massive thank you to John and the team. Our treasured picture memories were retrieved from an a damaged external hard drive device. Years of great times that we thought were lost.We are so grateful and cannot recommend Lazarus enough. Professional service from start to finish!

Completely lost all access to all data on my hard drive which was a disaster! Lazarus were brilliant. Totally upfront about costs. Kept me up to date throughout the recovery process and most importantly of all, recovered the most precious folders and files! Can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you Lazarus.

What a great team with an honest and reasonable pricing policy. Have used twice over the years never lost a precious photo yet. Keep up the good work.

I dropped my phone and lost the last pictures of my Dad before he passed away. Lazarus got nearly all my images back recently, and as my Mum has just passed away they are even more special as there were pictures of Mum and Dad together too. Not enough words to express my thanks to you guys xx

I thought I had lost 15 years of family photos from my MacBook hard drive. Computer wasn’t booting and wife was not happy! Lazarus recovered the drive and it was back to me in a few days. Highly recommended.

Found these people on line and chose on reviews and price. I had quotes for between £200 and £400 to recover some data from a drive that I could not get to show in Windows or DOS. Lazarus were much better value so I gave them a try, especially as they don't charge if they can't get the data back.

This company does what it says it will do, effectively and with great communication, all at a great price, I will be using them again.

Never before got to the point where I needed data from a hard disk that wouldn’t even power up, so feared the worst. However, after searching the internet for a recovery option that wasn’t going to break the bank, I’m very glad that I selected Lazarus. Not only did I get all data recovered, but the service was quick and kept well informed throughout the process. Highly recommend to anyone who needs their data back from a disaster situation.

Brilliant job by Lazurus. Dropped my external drive with nearly 2TB of music on it which I use as a radio presenter. Even more disastrous when I realised I'd cocked up the back up! Sent to a local "specialist". Gone 6 months and then "we can't do anything" As a last resort, a colleague suggested Lazarus. If you take the lockdown out, it's probably taken about two months and that includes sourcing new heads and me sending a new 4TB disc for them to restore to. They managed to get me back about 85% of my original data and it would have probably been 100% if the "specialists" hadn't got to it before. Excellent job and well worth the wait

Very professional service from start to finish. Recovered all my data from Mac HD, including around 10,000 photos, that I had previously been advised was not recoverable. Whole process took less than a week, and done under a standard recovery price. 5 star service. Highly recommended.

Outstanding service from this company. John Hyde delivered exactly what he said he would. No hidden agenda. Listened to what my needs were and simply got on with it. Highly recommend this company for all your data recovery needs.

These guys are amazing, fantastic service, great communication, they let me know what they could do and when they could get it done. I tried an other company who where total cowboys, Lazarus said how much it would cost which was cheaper than the cowboys and that's what i paid. Get to see a company in this space that are honest and reliable, would highly recommend.

Help when you need it with lost data. 100% honest. Recover data where other companies say not possible. Lazarus are very respectful and friendly.

Did some research a while back on recover firms and sent off my drive to a specialist in London (who I won't name) that ended up giving me a quote for £450 to recover data from an external drive that failed to start.

Left it, and did some more Googling and came to a company called Lazarus Data Recovery who after a free inspection quoted me £250 after I sent the drive in, and within 4 days I had the drive back on my desk with ALL files available! They are fastest, cheapest, and nicest company I have dealt with for this sort of thing and couldn't recommend them highly enough.

If you need them for personal or business purposes you won't be let down, great bunch of guys who genuinely want to help.

Shame there are so few of these types of businesses left these days, others could learn from them!

Highly recommend Lazarus Data Recovery! They managed to recover all the data from our computer hard drive that had failed and corrupted quickly and without complication. We are so pleased and grateful as we have got back years of work and a decade of family photos. Lesson learned for us to back up work and photos in the future, however good news for us that it was not all lost.

So grateful to John at Lazarus. Right from booking our hard drive in for collection to recover lost photos - communications and expectations throughout the process and the final outcome have been exceptional. Would highly recommend!

The data recovery gurus at Lazarus were able to recover all my files on a corrupted external drive and transfer to a new drive. This was done efficiently and at a very reasonable price. Communications and customer service was also top notch. I highly recommend these guys and will use again without hesitation!

Probably the best data recovery in the UK absolutely awesome.

Superb service recovered my data from an SSD which i was very worried about at a very very good price. They were honest unlike other companies and have a fixed price list. Extremely helpful and they are not trying to sell you anything just genuinely trying to help you recover data. I would be very careful with other companies as there are alot of data scam companies. Lazarus saved some very very important data and to me they are the best!! Keep up the good work.

Lazarus provided a complete service from discovering the faults with my disks through to disposal. They always kept me informed and didn't even charge when the data couldn't be recovered due to severe damage.

Team provided an excellent and very efficient service recovering Photo's going back 15 years from a broken external hard drive, rescuing so very precious memories that we thought we had lost forever.

We cannot thank the team enough for what they have delivered.

Highly professional and great value. Kept well informed throughout the whole process which I may add runs like clockwork.

This was not the first time I had a HD crash on me, but it was the first where I said to myself 'WHY DIDN'T I TRY HERE FIRST?'

From the moment I spoke to John I was completely put at ease. Within a couple of hours the courier had come down picked up my drive & within a day or so the diagnosis was put to me plain & simply - no complicated jargon.

Just under a week later they told me what was wrong, that they had fixed it & that it would be back to me by today (Monday 15th). In fact it arrived the next day (Saturday 13th)

I cannot tell you what peace of mind Lazarus have instilled in me with their swift, reliable & courteous service. In these trying times it comes as a relief to find a business who is also kind, considerate, honest & trustworthy. Values that during these Covid times seem to have been forgotten by some but not by John & the team, so well done.

Finally all I have to say is that you need look no further for HD repair cos Lazarus is the ONLY place to go

Like marriage, not having multiple copies of your data is a mistake you're only liable to make once in your life, and so data recovery companies, like wedding planning companies, squeeze your misfortune for all its worth! You begin your search to find prices that range from the exorbitant to the extortionist. Prices with no ceiling, so you might end up getting billed in the thousands. You search for reviews, and you find so many horror stories, for every single company out there.

Not so with lazarus. The only company I could find with not a single bad review, and clear fixed price plans. So my search ended swiftly with them. When you contact them, it's evident that you're dealing with real people, not salespeople, who care about recovering your data. When they charged me, they forgot to add the postal cost (I live overseas) and so they picked up the bill. What other company would do that? This is the equivalent of a mom and pop shop, but online. And all my data was recovered! 5*

Great job in recovering all my data!.I am so happy to have all my information back.Thanks

Fantastic service. It’s not often you use a company that is just outstanding in everyway. It was so fast, they picked up and delivered my drive from my house. They kept me informed the whole way through. They managed to recover everything. The price was very reasonable.

As a computer repair company I have always had reservations about sending customers hard drives to another company to recover their data, however Lazarus's "Sealed box courier service" finally persuaded me to give them a try. I sent them 2 Drives that I suspected had been setup as a raid array, I also included another drive for them to save the restored data on to. Within a week I received them back with all data restored at a very reasonable price. Excellent service, I look forward to using them again. Patrick, Wellingborough Computer Repairs.

Superb service with Lazarus! I had a hard drive with many years of data on it. I cut the power as I was troubleshooting my hard drive as it was coming to the end of it's life and sadly it wasn't being detected and my computer advised me to format the disk. I decided to contact Lazarus for a chance to retrieve this data and it was a really convenient service from sending it off to retrieving the data. It was an advanced recovery and took around 2 weeks to be fixed. Was updated at every stage by the amazing customer service who answered any questions I had in the process swiftly. Overall it was a pleasant experience and would 100% recommend to anyone who is at loss of their data.

Great recovery service, John and the team have got me out of trouble with 2 hard drive failures. Both times price reasonable and service and communication fantastic. A life saving business !!!!

My hard drive started to malfunction, I was unable to copy over my precious data. I searched the internet amongst the many available firms promising recovery, yet with little information on their exact cost structure. Lazarus had good feedback, a clear and reasonable cost structure, and John replied to my enquiry emails very promptly. So I went with them, took my drive well packed to a DPD depot, and postage was taken care of. My hard drive was making a clicking noise, usually indicative of expensive work for recovery according to the few emails I sent to different firms. I also chose Lazarus because their more advanced recovery package had a reasonable price compared to competitors. But Lazarus was able to actually recover my data on their cheapest standard plan, and I had the data back in less than a week tops. Very thankful for their professionalism, excellent service and affordable rates.

Excellent. I had neglected to back-up my main storage drive for about 3 years and when the drive heads crashed I stood to lose everything. My first concern was being ripped off so I researched companies and reviews for about 2 weeks before I chose Lazarus, the fixed price and the promise of no charge if they couldn't recover the data was what gave me peace of mind. I had around 300,000 files I needed saved, and they did save the overwhelming majority of it, what couldn't be saved (only about 200 files) was listed in a document, so it's been easy to find or rework things that were unrecoverable. Communications were excellent, and I was even given advice on RAID setups to prevent this happening again, which I thought was very decent of them since this is their business. No hidden costs; no fix no fee; free postage; polite; friendly; efficient and helpful, what's not to like? Hopefully I won't need to recover data again but in the event I do I will have no hesitation using Lazarus.

This business provides a first-class level of service - efficient, polite and the quality of the result was better than I had ever hoped. The job was completed in a reasonable time and the level of updates on progress on the job was exceptional. I cannot recommend this company more highly. Thank you!

I would like to thank the staff at Lazarus for getting all 1TB of my data recovered from my broken external hard drive. I hadn't kept up to date with my additional backing up and had a huge amount of work stored no where else. I have a hobby making mods for racing games and if they had not been successful I would have lost hundreds of hour worth of work - permanently! Thank you so much. At £180 plus the price of a new hard drive this was much cheaper than all the other quotes I got. Good job. I recommend them fully.

I've used Lazarus now over a doazen times, very succesfully too. Can't recommend them highly enough. Within our IT department even we defer to data recovery from Lazarus and know that as soon as a drive is faulty, don't mess with it just get it to the team asap. We have very happy scientists and students who thought weeks, months of work could be lost. It doesn't matter how often you tell people not to store stuff locally they always know best. M2 drive, SSD's and SD cards have all been recovered.

A truely remarkable company, they never gave up with a difficult situation. They definately went the extra mile to get the software required for my issue. Other companies would have given up but thanks to Lazarus all my data was recovered. I will be recommending them to friends who have any issues in the future.
