Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

5
You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

Due to a difficult financial situation, I decided to use their services, and I was not disappointed. I reached out because I was struggling with debt, and they truly helped me get back on my feet. I only have two months left until I am completely debt-free, and that means a lot to me. Reviewed on: 31st May 2026

StepChange changed my life

5
I started working with StepChange several years ago. They recommended a DMP as the best product for my situation and with their help I have almost paid off all of my debts. They have also been very flexible and helpful whenever my circumstances have changed. With one call I have been able to sort everything out everytime I've needed help or clarification. The customer service has always been friendly and knowledgeable without a long time on hold too. I would recommend StepChange to anyone who feels like they can't face tackling their debt. I felt that way too, but StepChange have helped me change my life. Reviewed on: 31st May 2026

Very good, was very stressed and worried about debt, being hounded by creditors at all hours of day and night and now have peaceful life again. Made mistake of taking loans I couldn't pay back and spiralled into more and more debt and the loan companies were very insistent on pressuring me to come up with money I did not have.
