Between life and death

This is the second time step change has helped me.The first time I came out of a violent relationship and they helped me manage all my debts until I could get back on my feet.This time they have took all the stress out of everything.With the cost of living going up at a rapid rate and covid I found myself spiraling into debt.My wages were only covering my gas and electric.Not only are they not bias but they listened and told me the best option for me.If it was not for them I properly would of took my own life.The best thing at of all of it its Free.They go above and beyond.

I was stressing over my financial situation especially in the age we are in and I never thought I would be in this situation by alas I am and I got recommended StepChange by Very (One of the companies I am in debt with) and since going onto a plan with StepChange my life is so much easier they just take the money and distributes it over multiple companies I am in debt with they are also incredibly friendly incredibly understanding of anyone's situations and they keep in contact with you overall its One of the best decisions I have ever made and I hope they win Reviewed on: 7th July 2023
