Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

5
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 went to Stepchange at an extremely difficult time in my life and they literally saved me. The sympathetic and experienced advisers guided me through what could have been a very complicated process and are now helping me seek light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel. My only comment is that it takes an age to get through but that shows how many people are likewise benefitting from their guidance. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

I have been with them for some years now and also introduced a friend to them too. They have always been respectful and handled anything sensitively and without judgement. They make sure that I have understood what has been imparted and take the time to answer any questions I may have. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026
