Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

I got into a debt management program with step change

I got into a debt management program with step change 6 years ago, after turning my life around from active addiction. Step Change has really helped me in continuing to pay off my debts. Before I started I though what's the point, might as well kill myself. I was so wrong and I am proud of what I have achieved/ Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Excellent service, friendly and helpful.

So much help while i struggled with my cancer.

I have cancer and recently it's been difficult with ops and no longer being able to speak. I missed my review and with the year I've had each time I had it in my head to sort it I was either ill or in hospital. They stopped bugging me when I emailed them. I'm still struggling but feel much happier now knowing they have my back and won't just say do it or leave. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
