Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

5
You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

StepChange has changed my life.

5
From my very first contact with the StepChange Debt Advice Service, I was treated with the utmost curtesy and respect and even though initially I was very nervous talking to someone about my financial problems, I was never made to feel that I was to blame for getting myself into financial difficulties and that I should have managed my finances better. The advisors have been so helpful and kind and I quickly felt at ease. They asked questions and offered solutions to my problems and worked out a repayment scheme to make it easier to repay my debts to my creditors. I can't recommend them enough to anyone who is struggling with debts and I thank them whole heartedly for their help and advice. Reviewed on: 31st May 2026
