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

Help given, pressure off!

From my first call to StepChange, I felt like I finally had someone backing me, there when I had questions, and no question was ever a daft question. I had a poorly husband when I first talked to them, and therefore I was the one dealing with it all, but they supported me fully, both with financial advice, and social/home issues.

I've been with step change nearly 6 years and very near to coming to the end and soon will be debt free. If it wasn't for step change I don't know what I would've done. They are so helpful and understanding and never once judged me. I would totally recommend step change to whoever is in money trouble, don't feel ashamed your not on your own and step change can help you. Thankyou for all the help you've given me over the last 6 years. Reviewed on: 11th July 2020
