Data Clinic Ltd – Our Latest Trustpilot Reviews
I cannot recommend this team enough
I cannot recommend this team enough. Chris and Janice and the team went above and beyond to help me retrieve data lost from my phone and as it was mostly charity work they even fixed my phone as a donation to the charity. I was so anxious and I am sure drove them mad with my questions and there were some issues backing up the data due to my settings but Janice was there calm and kind every step of the way reassuring me and they overcame every hurdle and everything was found. A 5 star personal, human and kind service which is rare but so talented and professional as well. Thank you all so much. Amazing customer service.
A very smooth experience from start to finish
A very smooth experience from start to finish. I had a large music collection I thought I’d lost forever. I phoned them up and the process was clearly explained to me. They got my drive on the 4/8/26 and I got my data back on the 11/8/26. I got all of my data apart from one file that they reported was damaged so a fantastic result for me. Very reasonable price and very pleased with the quick service. The only negative was that the online payment system is not very mobile phone friendly and I had to call them to make the payment but apart from that i am super pleased I chose them. I would certainly recommend this company to everyone.
Brilliant service
Brilliant service. Janice and the lab team are outstanding. Good communication and updates throughout. Files on 2 discs were retrieved, 1 with new heads needed. Good pricing - transparent and competitive. They've been amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or to recommend them.
Communication was engaging
Communication was engaging. The services offered, potential cost and timescales were clear at the outset. The courier collection and delivery were managed well. A good experience and a positive outcome.
A very effective service
My iPhone completely bricked on holiday and I tried everything, even a new screen but I couldn’t get it to work. I thought I had lost all my holiday photos but Data Clinic managed to recover everything that was on the phone and I couldn’t be happier! They are very friendly and knowledgeable and the service is very in depth. They are honest and upfront about costs and will outline the whole process for you. I would definitely recommend instead of trying to take apart the phone yourself, it’s worth the money!
Highly recommend Data Clinic
Janice and the team at Data Clinic have been brilliant through the whole process of helping recover my drive. I was really impressed they could show me my drive contents virtually and get everything back to me very quickly. I would highly recommend!
Amazing service by the team
Amazing service by the team and especially Mohammad. My SSD was taken for emergency recovery within the same day and satisfactory results were delivered. Highly recommend these guys if you value your data!
Really satisfied with the service
Really satisfied with the service from start to finish. I've contacted multiple companies around Manchester which all quoted £400-700 with turnaround of minimum 1 week, whereas they've completed this within 3-4 working days for less than £300.
Top notch communication and service
Top notch communication and service. My hard drive fell onto the carpet and started beeping. My laptop registered a hard drive was connected but no files would appear. Janice at Data Clinic was amazing.
Very easy and quick turnaround
Very easy and quick turnaround of retrieving all my data from a 15+ year old hard drive which recently stopped mounting. Comms and expertise were A++ and I'm very happy with the result.
Thousands of family photos recovered
Hard drive failed with thousands of family photos not backed up anywhere. Was expecting the worst — very happy with Data Clinic, they retrieved it all and transferred it to a good hard drive. Lesson learned!
