I wouldn't trust freebies, unless someone knowledgable specifically recommends one from experience.

Recovermyfiles is a good commercial program, which I have had success with and came well recommended. You can download a trial version, which will show you which files (if any) are recoverable. If you like what you see, then you can think about purchase .... if not, nothing lost.

I rarely suggest commercial software but if you have reformatted then only commercial software will be powerful enough. Phil's suggestion is very good. There are some free and paid solutions as well as suggestions on what not to do until the recovery is attempted in this post.
