Let’s be honest

You don’t care about the phone. You care about what’s on it.

A new phone costs a few hundred dollars. The last video of your dad, eight years of your kids’ photos, or the files your business runs on? You can’t buy those back. That’s the only thing we work on.

The photos you never backed up

Most people don’t find out their cloud stopped syncing until the phone is dead. You’re not careless. It happens to almost everyone.

The “just put it in rice” advice

Rice doesn’t pull water out of a circuit board. Corrosion keeps growing while you wait. Every day matters.

The shop that said “it’s gone”

Most repair shops replace parts. We work at the board level. A lot of our cases are devices someone else already gave up on.

What we recover

If it stored it, we can probably get it back.

Dead, wet, cracked, bent or not showing up. Pick your device to see how we handle it.

A quick note about hard drives. Right now we are not taking physically damaged spinning hard drives: drives that click, grind, beep or were dropped. These need a clean room, and we’d rather tell you upfront than take your money. Laptops, MacBooks, phones, USB drives, memory cards and SSDs are all fine.

We Save Data saved the day! I found We Save Data after almost being taken advantage of somewhere else! I received an inflated quote from another business & decided to contact We Save Data for a 2nd opinion. …

What to do in the next 10 minutes

These five steps decide how much we can save. Free advice, whether you use us or not.

Start my liquid-damage mail-in
  1. Turn it off. Don’t check if it still works.
  2. Don’t charge it. Power plus water is what burns boards.
  3. Skip the rice. It doesn’t dry the inside, and you lose days.
  4. Don’t use a hair dryer. Heat spreads liquid deeper.
  5. Ship it to us as soon as you can. Corrosion grows every day.
Questions

Things people ask before they ship.

How does mail-in data recovery work?

Start your case online, pack your device with the packing slip, and ship it insured to our Charlotte lab. We diagnose it within 24–48 hours of arrival, give you a firm price, recover your data after you approve, and ship everything back insured.

What does it cost?

Memory cards and USB drives start at $89. Laptops and MacBooks start at $99. Liquid damage starts at $149. Phones and tablets are quoted after the free diagnosis. You always get a firm price before any work.

What if you can’t recover my data?

Then you don’t pay for the recovery. That’s our no data, no fee promise.

Who pays for shipping?

You ship your device to us. We pay for insured return shipping.

How long does it take?

We diagnose within 24–48 hours of arrival. Most recoveries are done 2–5 business days after you approve. Door to door, most customers have their files back in about 7–10 days.

Do you need my passcode?

For phones, tablets and encrypted computers, yes. Without it, the data can’t be read by anyone. Don’t mail it in. We’ll ask for it securely once your device arrives.
