Made our life so much easier!!

5
We had a lot of debt and were struggling from one payday to the next. We’d taken out some silly loans to make life easier in the short term but it had got to the point where we couldn’t take our anymore loans and were not able to pay what we had. We eventually contact StepChange and they were amazing! So friendly, didn’t make us feel stupid for the position we were in, no judgement! They just helped us sort everything out into one a plan that we could stick to and we are doing. We are now able to see the light at the end of the tunnel!! Thank you! Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Saved me!

I was in a situation I thought I wouldn't be able to get out of and just felt so nervous and anxious all the time. I phoned stepchange just expecting some samey same advice. I spoke to the call handler and she spoke me through what stepchange were, and how they could help me. She was so kind and so helpful and made me feel like I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. I cannot thank stepchange enough and would recommend to anybody who's in a debt situation.

Put me on the right track

5
I was in a bad place with debt and having expectations from my family to move into my own flat but i was embarrassed to tell them I couldn’t afford it as i got myself into debt. I had no one to turn to as my debts were high and i started to worry. I then came across step change and when i rang them i was so anxious and felt ashamed to tell them of my debts but every advisor i had spoken too were so friendly professional and caring. They managed to set up a DMP for me which took less than a hour going through the creditors and what i owed then a budget of what my outgoings to live were. When this was all set up they contacted the creditors with the payment they would receive monthly. I had no hassle what so ever they also update you every month with a news letter etc. Only today I received a email to say i am nearly debt free and how good to see that and the feeling is amazing. They really helped me get my life back on track and this is not the end either they help you keep on track after your dmp finishes to make sure that you don’t fall into that hole again. Thank you StepChange Reviewed on: 8th July 2020
