Saved my life

Was in a significant amount of debt due to several redundancies, but still tried to maintain same lifestyle with young children. Was recommended to Stepchange (initially CCCS) by National Debtline. They helped straight away, assisting with aggressive creditors, explaining step by step what our plan was, changes we needed to make. They never judged us at all, which made us feel at ease. Then year upon year, 10 in all their level of assistance never faltered. Thank you so much Stepchange, you literally are life savers! Reviewed on: 5th August 2021

A lifeline in the darkest time

Could not ask for more

To say StepChange have saved my life would be an understatement. I cannot praise the company enough for all that they have done for me. Whenever I speak to someone on the phone, they never sound judgmental and always want to help you in the best possible way. The whole process is easy and if you ever have any doubts, they never fail to give you peace of mind. StepChange have helped my mental state so much by taking care of everything and I’m really happy with how they handle things. I’ve been in such a better situation since speaking with them and I’m so glad I came to them. Cannot recommend them enough, they deserve all the praise in the world. A personal and massive thank you to everyone who works for StepChange, you are amazing! Reviewed on: 5th August 2021

Very helpful and recommended to anyone who needs advice

The stigma , shame and worry of debt was making me ill. From the moment I picked up the phone to talk to them they helped me put my mind at ease. My friend confessed she was having debt worries so advised her to contact StepChange. She couldn’t believe how helpful they have been too. Reviewed on: 5th August 2021
