StepChange saved me at a time when I was drowning in debt. I cannot thank them enough , I am now debt free, something I could never have imagined 5years ago. No judgement, just helpful, clear advice from the very start. StepChange saved my life, from the first phone call I knew I had made the right decision. No more burying my head in the sand, they helped me to breathe again and my life is now wonderful. Thank you so much! Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

StepChange transformed my life.

StepChange transformed my life. I was DROWNING in debt - almost £40k and interest fees were rising faster than I could keep up. Each month I would need to borrow more to survive. Stepchange made the whole process from start to finish an absolute breeze. You can even complete the process without having to speak to anyone directly. I can now survive each month, with a firm end date in sight. A relief. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

I had quite a lot of dept and since my stroke I had been unable to work and the debts where piling up. I contacted stepchange who helped me do an income and expenditure firm and suggested a debt management plan. I was so relieved a big burden had been lifted off my head and agreed an affordable monthly payment. I make an affordable monthly payment to Step change and they make the payments to my creditors. I would recommend this service to anybody really struggling with dept. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Life changing, if struggling with debt repayments.

4
Quite a while ago I was struggling very much with debt, after losing my job, and the bills, debt repayments, and general everyday costs were piling up, and I honestly thought there was no way out of that horrible nightmarish situation. Then we were advised to try Stepchange, who are free to use, and they sorted us out with a repayment plan we could afford. They contacted those we owed money to, and they stopped charging interest on the debts and stopped the threatening letters. We do a yearly review with them, to keep everything straight. We are now quite close to paying everything off, and I would recommend Stepchange to anyone struggling to keep their heads above financial water. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
