Changed our life for the better

After years of having credit cards and our bank arranging consolidated loans. Thinking they were helping us, until it got to an unmanageable state. Step change helped manage our debts over 10 years ago, there is now light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Step Change. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2021

never give up talk to StepChange first

With the death of my husband and the loss of his income, i found myself unable to meet and cope with our joint debts. Frantic and having no impartial person to talk to, it was suggested i talk to StepChange, this i did. StepChange listen to me about my financial difficulties, then advised me on possible solutions. i decided on a DMP and from that day on i saw a debt free future again. With StepChanges valuable and friendly help, my life is now less stressful. I can't thank StepChange enough. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2021

There when needed.

I got into debt through no fault of my own, but Stepchange were incredible in dealing with my money problems, and spoke to my creditors to come to a fair and affordable payment. They were there when I needed them with great advice, and no judgement. I will be forever grateful. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2021

A life saver; literally

With chronic health problems and encircling debt I was sinking slowly into very much dark place. Like most people I left it to the last moment to deal with the debt having deluded myself I had things under control. Having come clean about the dentist was my brother that suggested I contact Stepchange. I was very apprehensive thinking them to be either judgemental and aggressive, or profiting in some way from my debt; I couldn't have been more wrong! The staff were friendly and professional keen to help get things sorted out. I have never felt rushed or belittled and with internet access I still remain in control of my account but with the support and guidance by the staff at StepChange. They provide a broad umbrella from under which one can breath again, and explore available options in a professional and calming environment of reduced stress and anxiety. . They are always there to answer questions and explain anything one doesn't understand. Their website is very clear to understand as is ones personal debt management quite a miracle of many stats. I cannot thank and praise them enough!! Reviewed on: 2nd August 2021
