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

Absolutely could not fault the help I received huge peace of mind after I made that initial call Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Non judgemental and supportive

I cannot put into words how this organisation has supported me and my husband. Each and every advisor I have spoken to have been consistent, supportive, knowledgable and most seriously have saved me, as at times I felt that the sleepness nights and constant worries of our debts were causing too much for me to bear on a day to day basis. Due to Stepchange and their continued support, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I am so thankful beyond words for them being here to help. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Saved me from drowning!

A combination of ill-health and financial difficulties left me in a vicious circle of which I couldn’t see a way out. The advisors at StepChange patiently and compassionately listened to my issues and offered guidance as to how I could address the monetary problems, with the hope that this would have a benefit on my mental health. I have always felt that they have respected any decisions that I have made and given me that pert advice as to how best to tackle what seemed like an ocean of financial woes. Six months into a mutually agreed plan, I now have increased hope for the future- the problems remain and are worsened by current government policy but the charity have been an ally in my struggles, for which I am eternally grateful.
