Review of the StepChange, Debt Management:

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

Don't let debt ruin your life.

Faced with spiralling debts and not seeing a way out I was at the end of my hope and feeling suicidally depressed.. A friend suggested that I speak to Step change and my life changed for the better as a result. All of the calls and letters stopped and I am now making one monthly payment to Step change who then allocate funds to my creditors. Reviewed on: 11th June 2025

Every person that has assisted me have been so helpful and kind.They know it’s a massive step for people to take that first step and pick up the phone.My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner.I feel in control of life again and not afraid to pick up the phone and no more mountains of letters.Changed life for me..

Not impressed

It's handy to have just one payment for my debts but the customer service is extremely poor and has caused more stress. They treat you like a number rather than a person and communication is extremely poor regarding decisions made on your behalf. Reviewed on: 10th June 2025

When I called step change they were really understanding, non judgemental, sympathetic and extremely helpful. They took a massive weight off my shoulders and gave me the peace of mind I needed with affordable monthly payments. Reviewed on: 10th June 2025

At my time of being worried sick that I had got into debt . I approached a company that charged for doing the same thing that step change does for free . I will always be grateful the help I received. The worry was taken from me. Fantastic service Reviewed on: 10th June 2025

StepChange have helped me out of a financial nightmare. I don't know how I would have managed without them. Their advisors are firm but fair, and most importantly, non-judgmental. They help you organise a budget and contact your creditors to arrange regular payments. A life-saving service! Reviewed on: 10th June 2025

From the initial contact with the team to now the service has been very good. They explained everything to me and found the best plan that worked for me and my family. They give regular updates and respond to queries I have quickly. I would highly recommend them to anyone struggling with debt Reviewed on: 10th June 2025
