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 changed my life

StepChange changed my life and helped my financial position go from every penny going on debts to enjoying holidays and saving for a house. Before StepChange I was constantly worrying about debts spiralling out of control, but when going through the debt management plan I felt supported, informed, and could see light at the end of the tunnel.

I am thankful to StepChange for such a huge help, for having peace in my mind. The only fact,that is wrong in my opinion, that I cant get a loan for stat -up my own business and repay all my debts quickly:-((((((((( Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

It’s a big relief

It’s a big relief knowing I will not get harassed by creditors any more and my large debts have been broken down to a managable monthly payment. All you need to do is tell them who you owe to and be honest about everything. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025
