Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

Great financial solutions for my financial issues

I was in a moment when i honestly thought i will loose the roof above my children's head and left with no food to eat, when I've been introduced to StepChange by our local council. They offered me a great doable solution to my financial problems and now, 4 years later, I'm half way through with hope in my heart that it's going to be ok! Thank you! Reviewed on: 27th May 2026

Easy to follow process

Helpful from the start, the website was easy to use and the forms to complete to advise on my debt problems took a bit of time to conplete but I felt relieved as soon as they were submitted. Then it was a case of waiting to hear back on the next steps. A DMP is now in place and I can sleep at night. Reviewed on: 27th May 2026
