It's a scam becuase they make you pay for all the parts and labor regardless if it works or not, so thats like 700 right there you are sinking into a useless hardrive if it doesnt work.

Has anyone went through this process before, if so, was it successful?

if the hd does not spin up and cant be seen by the bios that seems to be the going rate at most places for recovery if it spins up and is physically seen you can try software that should be able to recover most of anything.
