Data Wiping Changes 2025
As of March 1, 2025, Jamie’s Computers will implement a flat fee of £36 for any collection specifically requesting the use of Blancco data wiping software. This change reflects rising costs, including the expense of using specialised software like Blancco. Like many organisations and businesses worldwide, we are adapting to increased operational expenses. We still offer FREE data wiping services, more detail below.
