Where we cover, and how to reach us.

We cover Cambridge and the county first, then Suffolk, Essex and further out, and all of the towns and cities listed will be able to obtain a quote, then drop off their drive at Compass House at Vision Park with no need for an appointment, or send it via insured post. Both options provide the exact same complimentary 48-hour diagnostic and both include free return shipping.

Cambridge and the towns a short drive out.

All towns and cities within half an hour of the bench at Vision Park may simply drop off their drives there. Most people typically do so.

// the fens & the north

Out through the fens to Peterborough.

The northern part of the county, where an agricultural/industrial economy begins and the media arrives in poorer condition.

// suffolk

East along the A14 into Suffolk.

The area from Newmarket (bloodstock records) out to the Suffolk coastline (offshore survey data).

// essex, hertfordshire & the m11 corridor

South down the M11 into Essex and Hertfordshire.

Pharmaceutical and lab data toward the north, legal and administrative data further south, and aerospace and bioscience data at Stevenage.

// county pages

Whole-county coverage.

If your town does not have its own separate entry on this website, information regarding your town can be found on the county page, and insured post can be sent from across the entire United Kingdom.

// further afield

Further afield.

Too far for an easy drive? Then use our insured post service, which will allow you to send it to us regardless of where you are based in the UK. We also cover the return leg on every job.

// getting it to us

Two ways to start.

First get a quote, either via telephone or using our quotation form. Then send the device to us along with a brief description of what happened to it. The diagnosis has no cost to you, nor will it commit you to anything. After that, you will receive a fixed price in writing prior to anything being opened.

Post it, or drop it in

Once you have a quote, nothing can begin until the device is with us, so all we need is for you to pack it up properly, include your contact information and post it to us or drop it in. We don't require any appointments. Our engineers will inspect your device upon receipt and provide a free diagnosis prior to providing you with a written figure.

Packing it properly
  • We prefer a small, sturdy box or a padded envelope. If you have an anti-static bag to enclose for protection, that would work too, though a food bag may also suffice.
  • Do not send the caddy, cables or power supplies for an internal drive; they are unnecessary for reading the data off the drive. They only add bulk to the package. Send your external drives in their respective cases along with all related cables and power supplies.
  • Include your name, address, phone number and email in your packaging, either on paper or on the shipping form below.

If posting your unit to us, please use a tracked and insured service, as what's on the drive is worth much more than the cost of shipping. Coming in person? That's okay too; just come during normal business hours Monday to Friday (between 9am and 5:30pm), with no appointment needed, and again, your unit should be packed as described above for travel.

Not ready to send it?

If you'd like to know what a recovery might cost before sending us the unit, simply tell us what your device is, how it is currently malfunctioning, and anything you've already attempted yourself to correct the issue. One of our engineers will provide you with their honest assessment of the chances of successful recovery along with an estimated price range.

All enquiries are reviewed by an actual engineer (not a generic form-handler) and typically are answered within the hour during business hours. Prefer to talk to someone? Give us a call on 01223 655015.
