Changed my life

I was in a big hole, and it was getting deeper, I never thought I’d escape, but I did. These people just dealt with it all, told them the whole story, warts and all as it were. Terrifying figures. No judgement just help, got me organised, got me a plan I could work with, and now I even have savings! Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021

Helped me through a bad period when I had nowhere to turn too . Probably saved my life and marriage with the support and understanding they provided

I ran up online gambling debts due to depression.my husband found out as I was of control trying to pay credit cards. In several occasions it crossed my mind there was only one way out the mess but I got in touch with StepChange . They listened and helped . Made me realise I’m not alone . I have never gambled since and I am in a happy place . They made me realise I can live on a budget and still have some money for important things in life . I owe StepChange a massive thankyou.

Put my life back on track

Had nearly 10yrs with stepchange everything was perfect from start to nearly finished Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021

A bright light when I was in a dark place!

I got to a point when I could not see a way out of the financial mess I was in. One phone call and not only was I given a solution, it was explained my choices and the processes in both a clear and more importantly, a non judgemental manner! I felt the person I spoke to really understood my plight and genuinely wanted to help me. Over the years I have spoken to quite a few staff from the company and have always been given the help and advice I need in a caring and understanding manner!!! I have recommended them to other people who have similar problems to mine already and will continue to do so. They were and still remain a lifeline for me. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2021
