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

Friendly, supportive and helpful

Prior to contacting StepChange I felt I was in a rut with my life. My debts were crippling me taking a very large chunk of my wage each month, with their help support and guidance I’ve managed to make payments that suit my budget. I have never been made to feel irresponsible or judged, they simply do their best to help you move forward with your life and for that I’m eternally grateful. I’d 100% recommend them to anyone struggling feeling like there’s no way out there’s a solution for you and they’re happy to help. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021
