Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

They supported me through it all!

Step Change are the most understanding, supportive and non judgemental people in the world. They are empathetic and understand what you need and what you don't need when you are at your most vulnerable. Don't get me wrong, they don't sugar-coat it, but at the same time, being realistic and supportive is their superpowers. Thanks for all thatbyou have done to get me and my family through this. Goodness knows where we would be without you. Keep up the good work. You don't just need Awards, you need medals! Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Helped me back from the brink.

StepChange have helped me so much especially after a divorce and then being made redundant. I would not have managed to survive without their help and support. I'm still using them now but my debts are gradually disappearing and my mental health has improved dramatically. I wish I could thank every person who has helped me from StepChange personally.
