Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Excellent service all round

Cannot praise enough everyone I have dealt with has been most helpful in some cases over and beyond what I would have expected they have certainly got us back on the road to recovery with a sensible affordable plan Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

It only takes one phone call to change your life.

I've had my DMP active for over a year now and by the end of 2024 I'll finally be debt free. This wouldn't have been possible without the amazing people at StepChange. Straight from my first initial phone call has been a fantasic experience, everybody I've spoken to has been so supportive and nice and you can generally feel a warmth as you you're talking to people that have your best interest at heart. My favorite part each month is looking at my DMP status and seeing my debts go down, it gives me real motivation to keep going. I encourage anybody that has debts and is worried, to get in contact. It only takes one phone call to change your life. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

StepChange has been my financial saviour

StepChange has helped me to take control of my debt and this in itself has helped me to manage my anxiety and deal with my mental health challenges. I will forever be grateful for what this charity has done for me. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

A heavy burden lifted

Simply put - I would never have managed to get on top of my debt problem without the assistance StepChange have given me. I think I begun my debt management plan 4 years ago; at the time I could barely manage to make the minimum payments, but as I write this I am ~3 months from being entirely debt-free. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Excellent service

Stepchange have really helped me dig my way out of a debt that was spiralling out of control. Worked out how much I could afford to pay each month and dealt with all my creditors for me. It's taken a few years, but I now have 6 months and counting until I am debt free and I cannot wait! Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Excellent, service.

Excellent, service. I would recommend to anyone struggling to manage their debts, just wish I had done it sooner. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
