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

I felt that I had hit rock bottom with all the debt and worry , Step Change have no idea how much they helped! They listened and didn’t judge. Although I’m still not debt free, I’m getting there and can definitely see a shining light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Relieved the anxiety of debts

We were stressed trying to manage our debts but Stepchange worked with us on our budget and agreed a DMP that was acceptable to our creditors. We have now been on the DMP for several years and it is working well. Recommend anyone concerned about their debts to contact Stepchange ASAP. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Last year I was depressed and anxious due to spiralling interest on my credit cards and couldn't seem to get them down. But now after getting the advice and help from Stepchange I can see my balances coming down and I have more money to buy food and clothing. I feel so much better in myself. So glad I phoned for help to Stepchange. Can't thank them enough. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022
