Marriage breakdown, left me with debt, I contacted Step Change, who made it possible for me to repay my debt to three different creditors, carry on working and raise my son. Step Change took away the stress of creditors contacting me for money and made paying easier, by one monthly payment and regular reviews to ensure I stayed on top of my finances. I seriously urge anyone who is worried about debt to contact Step Change. I can't thank them enough. !!!!!!!!!!! Reviewed on: 27th July 2021

Stress levels dropped after contacting StepChange

StepChange was like a breathe of fresh air at the hottest and stickiest financial time of my life. Their advice and knowledge to help me through gave me the confidence and peace of mind I needed in equal measure. Avoid the scammers and the sharks out to fleece the unsuspecting and vulnerable offering snake oil. StepChange for me are the only people you can trust in a time of true financial difficulty. The advisors are very understanding and it is a pressure free process. Nobody or no organisation is perfect but StepChange is about as close ad it gets. Reviewed on: 27th July 2021
