Don’t struggle with debt contact these

I have struggled for years getting into more debt to pay old debt as I felt to ashamed to reach out for help, I finally come to terms and admitted I was struggling and it was all getting on top of me to the point where I hated if my phone rang or if the postman walked into my garden. A family member told me about step change so I did my research and and thought what do I have to lose and filled everything in which I must say was super easy to follow each step and if like me I was getting overwhelmed at seeing how much debt I actually had accumulated I had to take a break but that was ok as it keeps it saved at what step your at. I had a response and a payment plan set up within 2 weeks ready for my 1st payment to go on the 1st of July. The Customer services were amazing so friendly and not judgmental put me at ease instantly. The fact I can sleep again at night without the constant worry on how I’m going to pay them all, not getting knots in my stomach everytime my phone rings is amazing and this is with the biggest Thankyou to step change my honest opinion if you are finding yourself struggling or not managing contact these you can do it all online if you prefer not to speak to anyone you will never look back Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

We have been with Stepchange for a number of years and have found them to be very supportive at every stage from setting up a Debt Management plan to doing the yearly budget reviews and helping with any letters we get from Debtors. The staff are non-judgemental and so calming to talk to. They really do help you find the best solution for your circumstances. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025
