Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

They have been amazing so supportive and helpful

I got into debt when my ex husband walked out on me and my 8 year old daughter 16 years ago. I have been a client with stepchange for many years without them I don't know how I would have been able to sort my debts out in an organised affordable way and will always be grateful to them ❤ Reviewed on: 3rd September 2021

Professional, supportive and reliable company. From the very first phone call I felt respected and valued. Step Change supported me through the process of setting up the plan and gave me back my dignity and self-respect. The plan was affordable and I'm now debt-free. No more worrying and sleepless nights.
