I was a nervous wreck with debts piling up after being made redundant. Stepchange was recommended by a family member and it was the best thing I ever did. They talked me through everything and set up a manageable payment scheme. Reviewed on: 19th May 2024

Life changing

Together with Step change I have overcome what felt like a mountain. Without their help I would still be stuck living day to day and unable to plan for the future, they have my upmost respect and I recommend to all who have debt problems. Reviewed on: 12th July 2020

One day everything is okay then the next

Was really scared to pick up the phone and contact step changes, i thought they was going to judge about my situation and not even try to help. Cut the long story short i was thinking of taking my own life for less than 8k. I was worried about what would happen if bailiffs came to my address and what my family would think. But it was nothing what i seemed they was more than helpful understood my situation tried working out the best solution for myself in the best affordable way. I would like to say if anyone is suffering from debts big or small please do get in touch with step changes. Don't let the outcome become worser than it already is seek help before it is too late.
