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

The pressure is off. I didn’t realise it until after I went through the process how stressed I was. Now I have an end date to my debt misery and I have enough money to live a life at the same time. No regrets. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

Fantastic experience so far. Really clear instructions to follow when applying and website is super helpful to check in on how things are going. If bills/costs change I’m able to let them know online and they adapt my budget so I’m not paying out what I can’t afford. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

Debt support .

5
I was reluctant at the beginning as never have I been in debt and was trying to manage myself however it became too much overwhelming for me as the debts were being drowned just in the interest not just the minimum payments. So I reached out to stepchange life anchor to be honest with you they helped and still are supporting took the stress and the constant phone calls and letters bombardment felt harnessed really.
