I found myself in a financial mess after my partner passed away…not only was it an emotional loss but also a loss of income too…I tried to cope with everything for around 4 months but knew I just couldn’t…I was getting letters and falling behind, interest was continuing to be applied so everything became a total nightmare…it was on The Martin Lewis program I took down details of StepChange….the next day I went online answered all that was asked…filled in online…I’ve never had to speak to anyone in person which was a relief then some days later received an email to say my DMP debt management plan was up and running…I’m into my 2nd year now …I pay by direct debit and receive an online statement every month showing where I am with my 10 debts…it’s not cost me a penny to do and has given me peace of mind doing so….Brian Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Debt free thanks to Stepchange

5
I'm embarrassed that I got into a crazy amount of debt due to lack of self control, and I was just about managing to stay on top of it but I was paying so much interest, it would've taken many more years to pay off than it did with the help of Stepchange. They didn't judge, they explained my options and I went with a debt management plan. They told me what to expect, wrote to my 12 creditors and they all knew who Stepchange were so it was all very easy. Some creditors even stopped the interest. I made one combined payment to Stepchange, and 3 and a half years later, I'm now debt free. It's very satisfying seeing your accounts close one by one when you finish paying them off, and you can do everything online such as changing account numbers if the debt is passed on. Most people don't like to admit to debt but if anyone I knew were struggling, I'd recommend Stepchange in a heartbeat. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Amazing help from StepChange

StepChange provided easy to understand guidance for debt management and helped us manage these debts so we had sufficient money to live on. We were stressed before balancing debt payments leaving nothing to live on. Of all the debt management companies we contacted, StepChange were well ahead of all others. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
