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

StepChange Helped Me Breathe Again

StepChange has really helped me get back on top of my finances. Things are still a bit tight, but I no longer have to make large payments I can’t afford, which is a huge relief. There were a few delays at the start due to missing reference numbers, and I did have to chase things up a bit. However, overall the service was helpful and well-handled. I’d recommend them to anyone struggling with debt. Their guidance gave me a sense of direction during a stressful time, and I finally feel like I can breathe again financially.
