How pricing works
- Free inspection. We diagnose your Mac or drive and give you a fixed quote before recovery starts.
- Assessment fee. A one-time £99 fee applies if a hard drive has to be opened in the clean room. It isn't refundable.
- Turnaround. Standard recovery takes 5–7 working days. Express and same-day recovery carry an extra charge, quoted case by case.
- Return media. Your recovered data is returned on a new drive or encrypted USB media, which isn't included in the prices above.
- VAT. Prices exclude VAT at 20%. Tick "Show prices including VAT" in the calculator to see the total.
