Report
I have no hesitation in recommending John (JT Data Recovery) for recovering corrupted data. He took the time to explain exactly how he would approach the recovery of the data from my SSD, kept me informed through the recovery process and had everything set up exactly how he said it would be & at the time he said it would be ready for collection. I've used John before for other work & he is completely trustworthy, knows exactly what he is doing and has the right kit to do things properly. His pricing is also very competitive, highly recommended.

Very fairly priced and professional. Alongside repairing my machine John was able to recover important information from my damaged harddrive and put it onto a new harddrive for me. He gave clear advice on what he could do and talked me through the length of time it could take and costs. If you need to recover data I would really recommend you give him a call as he's fair and upfront about the work involved and most importantly whether it's possible to get it back for you.

Excellent friendly service. Following an exhaustive and unsuccessful attempt to obtain data from a corrupted micro SD. This took considerable time and effort for which I was not charged. I would wholeheartedly recommend JT Data Recovery
