Step Change Debt management service could never ever get any better than they are. They have piloted me through "a dark tunnel" of further plunging deeper into my debts. I don't know how I would manage without Step Change. They are one of the best in this area. Tbh, I was on the brink of moving to another country in exile and assuming a new identity and just abandon the best but then Step Change rescued me by; "tossing me a Life jacket in the middle of the ocean, drowning in" my in debts of approximately £22,00. Now I'm pleased to say just how Step Change has restored my feeling of despondency, ie they advised me on how best to managemy debts. L.H. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

I can breathe again!

A friend recommended StepChange around 4 years ago and they have 100% given me the most helpful advice in a respectful and unpatronising manner. They gave me options that fit my situation and then helped organise the one I chose! Honestly, for the first time in a lot of years I felt I could breathe again!! My situation will not change overnight but I am no longer sticking my head in the sand thanks to them! Reviewed on: 12th August 2022
