Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

5
You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

Phoned up in a panic after assessing the enormity of debt I had incurred. Was on with a lovely individual who was very patient and very understanding of my circumstances. We went through a number of options and ultimately settled on what best suited me. The information I had and continue to have is outstanding. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026
