I was a nervous wreck with debts piling up after being made redundant. Stepchange was recommended by a family member and it was the best thing I ever did. They talked me through everything and set up a manageable payment scheme. Reviewed on: 19th May 2024

Help with the management of debt

After finding myself in a situation with mounting debt and suffering with severe anxiety, I came to a point where I could see no way forward. i contacted Step Change who helped me set up a DMP, this was set up and in place within a week, I cannot thank them enough. My DMP has been in place for 6 months now and i cannot express enough how this has helped me, The peace of mind that this has given me - we there are no words. i can now see a way forward, I will have repaid all of my debts in just under 4 years - this wouldn't have been possible without Step Change. I cannot thank them enough. Reviewed on: 10th July 2023
