Stepchange change your life.

Cannot praise them highly enough. They do not judge you at all just help you. Its like a huge mountain has been lifted off your shoulders. My husband, a fit and healthy man, was diagnosed with cancer and unable to work. We used all our savings and didnt know where to turn next. Stepchange deserve any award going.

I wish I'd called earlier

5
I'd been sinking steadily into debt for years and I just wasn't able to keep my head above water any longer. It wasn't really a life. It was just survival from month to month. StepChange did what I thought was impossible and allowed me to come up for the air I needed. They were understanding, yet professional. I didn't feel embarrassed, I came away feeling like: 'I can do this. I finally have a game plan'. I just wish I'd called them years ago. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2020

Saved my Life!

5
I came across Stepchange when I was at a very low point in my life, struggling with debts all over the place. They have been absolutely incredible from the moment I first contacted them to throughout the whole time of my DMP to which now I am seeing that light at the end of the tunnel. I was embarrassed about the situation I had gotten myself in to and it felt incredible and such a relief not to feel judged by someone for a change. I owe everything to stepchange, without sounding dramatic these people have saved me. I now am knowledgable about debt and will never ever go to that point again in my life but also with all their tips throughout I am now confident at controlling and budgeting my money. Stepchange deserve every single award out there 10x over for what they do. I am a little bit emotional now looking back and writing this, they are just amazing in every single way.

Was at a low point in life with debts and creditors chasing me.... didn't know where to turn. A quick search, a short form to fill and a quick call and everything changed. Step Change were a great help and my dreaded debts that were bringing me down are slowly disappearing... no more calls or letters demanding money. Absolutely terrific service.
