Accidentally Deleted Most Current Volume of Instance

0

I created a volume from a snapshot and deleted the other volumes afterwards. I then logged in and found out the data was super old. Long story short I was creating snapshots of a volume but it was the incorrect volume. I still had an old volume that my snapshot cycle was backing up instead of the current volume. Now that it's been deleted I have lost all my data for 4+ years...

I contacted support to only have them tell me it's not possible to restore the volume that was deleted because I had no AMI or Snapshot associated with the volume. I did try and restore every snapshot I had to a new volume but it always returned with the old outdated volume.

I asked if they could revert my account or the actual server back to the day before and they've yet to respond. I know this would be possible if they kept images of the host machine and we are willing to pay but our options are looking grim.

How screwed am I? I don't have backups of that data (mainly quickbooks data) that I can find because it was auto backing up to the server and I thought it was backing it up via daily snapshots. I checked to see if the data was in quickbooks online backups but apparently that was never setup.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but unless there is a backup or snapshot of the volume there is no way to restore a deleted snapshot. Also, I don't believe there is an option to revert your account or the instance to a previous state.
