Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

Step Change literally saved my life.

Step Change literally saved my life. I was a suicide point. Unable to cope with my debts and very little money coming in. No where to turn, until I saw a number for step change. I'm glad I found the courage to ask for help. They didn't judge me. Made it an easy process to fill in the paperwork. Made payments easier to cope with. I can’t praise them enough.

A weight has been lifted from my mind.

I have felt that a weight has been lifted from my mind. I got into debt through no fault of my own 2 years ago I was diagnosed with throat cancer I've had lots of radiotherapy and gladly I'm clear over the cancer. But because of it I lost my business that left me with only pension to live on I tried to pay my bills for awhile but in the end and the cost of living going up and up I couldn't maintain it. I was recommended by my bank to go to stepchange for help I am glad to say that change my situation. John Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

A Big Thank you.

To dealing with all the creditors and negotiating payments individually took me week of pain and worry which I endured for a year. Then I passed it all to Step Change who have taken all the hassle and concern and sorted everything out to every bodies satisfaction. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025
