Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Step change is outstanding so effective

I have reduced my indebtedness within a short period and look forward to wiping it completely Reviewed on: 5th August 2021

Peace of Mind

About 5 years ago I was made redundant from a senior management role. I have a daughter with very serious heart conditions and struggled to find work that would pay enough to keep on top of things, but give me work life balance. Consequently I ended up in huge debt, defaulting on loans and finance deals etc that had previously been affordable. After a couple of years the stress of being in debt and taking pay day loans and getting further in debt was unbearable! When I contacted Step Change they immediately made me feel like there was light at the end of the tunnel and came up with a realistic repayment plan! I still have a few years to go until myself and my family are debt free, but I no longer worry about it and know that we will eventually clear our debts, whilst still being able to feed and clothe my loved ones without getting further into debt!! Fantastic organisation that gives us peace of mind! Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

A weight off of my shoulders!

I can’t tell you how my life has changed since contacting Step Change. The staff are helpful, non-judgemental, and made me feel completely at ease. I still have my debts but I know each month they are reducing and I can once again open my post without dreading what I’m going to find. There is a plethora of helpful information on the website, but if I need to I can call and speak to someone or email a question. I feel so supported and can’t stress enough how much contacting Step Change has changed my life! Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

Staff were extremely helpful, put me at complete ease when I initially called. The whole process is so easy, and I'm not computer friendly, but they are always helpful when I call. Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

Give you peace of mind

We were in a desperate place - more was going out then coming in. We eventually plucked up the courage to ring and it was so easy and they didn’t judge. We had a repayment plan in place and never looked back. We only have 5 months to go Reviewed on: 17th June 2021
