Best service ever!

Since day one I have received a brilliant service. When I struggled with updating my outgoings, one phone call and the agent was able to assist. I had to request a short payment break and they were really understanding and helpful. Their service is second to none and they are extremely emphatic. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

I had been struggling with my debt for over a year and felt overwhelmed and stuck in a never ending cycle. StepChange helped me to make sense of my debts, create a budget and make a plan to get me debt free within a set timescale, they gave me some light at the end of what had become a very long and dark tunnel. With StepChanges help I am now able to look forward and feel I have more control over my life and finances. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

The best thing I could have done.

The best thing I could have done. Unable to make the repayments on loans, car finance and overdrafts after COVID I was drowning and stressed. After an internet search I found Stepchange and after a bit of reading plucked of the courage and reached out. From that moment on stress has lifted, my debt is managed and repayments manageable. I am still embarrassed that I ended up hear but have told close family and friends who are supportive. Only negative is impact on credit score but there has to be consequence I guess. Only 18 months to go and that will be sorted too. Stepchange you are great ! Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Hardship into Communal Support

I owe so much to the people who stood by me during my darkest days. Between my son’s autism and epilepsy, I reached a breaking point where my debts became overwhelming. The hardest part wasn't just the money—it was the guilt of feeling like I had betrayed the people who loaned me funds. Under any other circumstances, I would have never been in this position. StepChange didn't just give me a plan; they gave me empathy when I needed it most. My goal now is to use this journey to become a beacon of support for other autistic individuals and their families. I want to turn my survival into a way to be 'positively effective' in the lives of others. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
