Step change help us sort ourselves out without any fuss or judgement. They explained all the details and options and helped us follow through our plan. Also explained how to desk with the creditors. Fantastic service showing us "light at the end of the tunnel ". Reviewed on: 9th June 2021

What a relief!

We are pensioners who were allowed more and more credit whilst only making the minimum repayment. We paid more and more interest and had no way to pay off the balance. Luckily a family member told us about Stepchange. Their staff were very kind and didn't make us feel embarrassed. They advised with regard to budgeting and negotiated with the creditors and we are now almost debt free. If only we had known about their help sooner! Reviewed on: 13th August 2022

Step Changed saved me.

5
I found myself with an unexpected and huge, unmanageable debt. Step Change listened, didn't judge, gave me reassuring advice and options I could chose from to address my situation. I was not sleeping, I was stressed by continuous calls and daily letters from the companies and felt scared and was worried sick. My debt remains huge and I will be paying it for many years to come however; with Step Change's ongoing professional help and support, in small affordable payments. I am so grateful to the many workers at Step Change that have helped me. Thank you. Reviewed on: 13th August 2022
