Saved our lives

5
We didn’t know what to do, our debts were running away from us! when my husbands health meant, he had to retire early, and due to me working full time we were not eligible for any benefits. That meant we struggled! If it wasn’t for the kindness and respect I was shown when I phoned them… well I really do not know if we would still be here. Because of them we do not have ‘threatening’ letters and we are managing just. However when things change for us again they are there with respect and kindness. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Helpful without feeling judged

It was very hard for me to accept I had a gambling problem and managed to get myself in excess of £40k debt - Step change helped me to sort my debts out without being judgemental & I’m now over half way through paying my debts off. I don’t have to deal with different companies - I pay one lump sum to Step Change & they deal with everything else. Stress free & I can see light at the end of the tunnel now - thanks to them. If they weren’t there I think I would be in a very dark place with only one option left. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022
