Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

5
It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish. It took 8 days in total. I'm sitting here now a lot happier than I was 3 weeks ago. They put me forward (against their recommendation) for a DRO, which was passed 2 weeks ago, and because I have their backing, I have been able to liaise with my creditors a lot easier, and they have actually helped me due to my underlying health issues. Thank you to them all from Stepchange and also Money Wellness (the people who organised my finances and submitted my DRO application) From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. They all deserve credit and praise for their hard work. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

I’d gotten myself into a poor financial situation following university and didn’t think I would be able to get myself out of debt. StepChange was a life line - completely non-judgmental and helped manage my finances. Now I’m debt free! Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

Long and difficult process, unable to get hold of anyone when you call. My debt is now so much worse because nothing is in place since January. It was a huge decision to go down this path but I now just feel let down and less in control than before Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

Helpful and supportive.

5
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
