I'm about halfway through a debt management plan arranged by Step Change which has been handled very well and given me much peace of mind. I would say to anybody with serious debt problems - don't hesitate, get in touch with Step Change and start your road to recovery. Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

Changed my life for the best

5
I didnt know where to turn and my sister told me to contact you and your adviser was so understanding. I felt so ashamed of getting into so much debt and didnt know where to turn. Stepchange turned my life around and I thank them every day of my life, for making me life worry free and liveable once more. I cannot say enough about them except to thank them all for everything they do and have done. Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

A FEELING OF BEING 'ON SIDE'

5
ALTHOUGH YOU ARE MEDIATORS - I HAVE VERY RARELY BEEN MADE TO FEEL BAD. MOSTLY YOU COME FROM A PLACE OF INSTILLING RESPONSIBILITY AND BEING PROACTIVE. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ANYONE WOULD PURPOSELY CHOOSE DEBT - OFTEN IT IS LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES. STEP CHANGE SERVES A NECESSARY PURPOSE AND I AM PLEASED FOR THAT. 100 YEARS AGO, YOU WOULD BE THROWN IN PRISON! I HAVE TO DATE PAID BACK £10,000 - IT MIGHT BE SLOW PROGRESS BUT I AM INTENT ON PAYING BACK AND DOING THE RIGHT THING. THANK YOU - YOU MAKE IT POSSIBLE! Reviewed on: 10th July 2020
