Helpful and supportive.

Very helpful and gave good advice in what was an extremely stressful situation for myself. I felt quite embarrassed at having to get in touch but was put at ease and the process was not too bad at all. I would say to any other people in this situation to make the call and speak to one of the advisors, they do not judge and are there to help. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

There IS help out there.

When my financial circumstances changed and I was inundated with debt collectors who bordered on becoming Parasites despite my being open and honest with them I reached out to StepChange who, in a matter of weeks, achieved a Debt repayment process that I was unable to do.

Spending out of control

After retiring I found my spending out of control as it no longer matched my pension income. Friendly non judgmental employees outlined a number of alternatives for me to consider ie bankruptcy, selling my home to pay debt off or 6 year repayment plan. I choose the last option and although it has been a harder option than the others I have only a year left before my debt is fully paid. Each year we complete a review of my income to ensure I can still manage my repayments or if it needs to be amended. Excellent service, thank you. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026
