Stress busting.

5
I was completely stressed out with trying to set up payment plans with my creditors knowing how important this was having previously had a business that was declared bankrupt. From day one when I phoned for advice to the present day - I have found every member of their team whom I have dealt with to be kind, understanding and knowledgeable. They go to great lengths to make you see that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I am still on my plan and will be for a few more years but I know that if I need help or advice I can just pick up the phone. They certainly stopped me from “going over the edge”. They richly deserve this nomination. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021

Excellent care and customer service

When in a desperate state and knew I had to take control of my debt, Step Change were patient and considerate. They were also always available when I had any questions or queries. Not just by email but also by phone. So when you felt in a vulnerable state, you could speak to a human who was always clear when explaining and always able to answer any question. I have felt so much better knowing I am paying off my debts in a manageable plan. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021
