Review of the StepChange, Debt Management:

View on product page

Poor advice

My husband found himself in difficulty following a gambling addiction that he had used a credit card for along with maxing out his overdraft. We went to StepChange for help, although their service was excellent I feel we were given wrong advice. We were advised to ignore any letters sent by creditors which resulted in a default on my husband's credit score for the sake of a small overdraft. Fast forward 3 years and all our debts were cleared and we were ready to look for a mortgage to find only 1 lender would consider us due to the default on my husband's credit score. It caused so much unnecessary stress and we are paying through our nose in interest now. Reviewed on: 22nd April 2025
