Support and empathy tailored to me

5
Not knowing which way to turn, they made it so easy, with no judgment. I felt like a valued member of society and not someone who had been blamed For making bad decisions. I feel empowered and free. I can see my debt coming down which is empowering. I’ve kept to my side of the contract by not taking out any further credit. It’s very hard because I have no disposable income left at the end of the month but I can’t wait to be debt free and I know I can do it supported by StepChange Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

The Releif Of My Stress

5
Before Step Change took over my DMP I was being charged £40 a month by a company that did no more than forward my payments to my creditors. Step Change offers me counselling and advice to help me deal with my debt in an achievable manner. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Changed my life

5
My husband and I managed to get ourselves into severe debt. We were living on credit cards and the available balance was almost gone. We were both stressed, I wasn’t sleeping, he was constantly snapping and I became very depressed. StepChange was our saviour. Two things stick in my mind. The first was being told to go out and do a decent food shop and to forget the bills as they had everything in hand. The second was reassurance we could call them as many times as we liked - whether it was because we were worried about a letter we’d received or if our circumstances ever changed - we were not to worry, they had our back. Outstanding service. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

My positive experience with Stepchange

Very helpful and knowledgeable to deal with when you are vulnerable, lost and confused about how to start digging yourselves out of the financial mire you have somehow managed to end up in. Non-judgemental advice and a positive experience means we are now well on the way to financial recovery. Thank you. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020
