Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Excellent service all round

Cannot praise enough everyone I have dealt with has been most helpful in some cases over and beyond what I would have expected they have certainly got us back on the road to recovery with a sensible affordable plan Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Relief

It is a great relief to find someone understanding and easy to work with. Thank you Stepchange Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Life Changer.

I was in a fairly dark place in relation to credit card spending and repayments. After a phone call and and filling in a form or two with Step Change my life was returned to near normality. My two creditors readily agreed the repayment structure forwarded by Step Change, which left me with enough funds to function again. I am now able to sleep properly for the first time in years. Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

A good send

I was very nervous and embarrassed about looking for help. Step change literally changed my life at a very difficult time. You dont feel judged or stupid for getting yourself into a financial mess. The help I received was beyond my expectations. That was two years ago, but it’s reassuring to know that they are there to help with any issues that crop up. First class service. Thank you Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Great help when needed

there when you need it, can't fault the service Thank you Step change Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Absolutely brilliant service

Extremely helpful when dealing with my financial problems - very reassuring and helped me sort things out and meant I felt a lot less stressed about everything - considering that this is all done within a short space of time - I’d recommend StepChange to anyone Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Changed my life

Before I started working with StepChange I felt totally consumed and overwhelmed by my debt. I just couldn't see a way through it and it was taking a gigantic toll on my mental health. I started my plan two years ago, and I'll be debt-free in seven months. I finally feel in control of it and, for the first time in over seven years, can finally see a debt-free future within reach. I feel hopeful. Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Massive thanks to all at Step Change helped me get into a better place

Excellent advice and reassurance Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Life saving!

I was feeling depressed, lost and desperate. I never thought for a minute that I’d ever have debt problems. Step Change, sympathetically and non judgementally, gave me sound advice to make an informed decision about how to proceed. My debts haven’t gone away but they’re now being managed and regularly reviewed. I will be forever grateful to Step Change! Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021
