Life savers

For the first time I felt I could stop stressing and not constantly worry about my debt after speaking to step change. They explained everything to me clearly, gave me back my life, I cant thank them enough. Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

Very Helpful and professional

5
Step Change are able to guide you through the complexities of dealing with your creditors in a helpful and professional manner. Dealing with creditors individually is a painful and humiliating experience and when the reason you get into bad debt is the result of rogue architects and building companies and no one else is interested in providing any assistance it definitely helps to contact Step Change and allow them to provide assistance.

From the very beginning the service has been fantastic. When you first speak to a member of staff you are instantly put at ease and all you really worries disappear. They are extremely helpful, knowledgeable and understanding. They made the whole experience a lot easier. I absolutely hate making phone calls however knowing that I’m guaranteed a friendly and non judgmental person on the end of the phone has taken away the stress for me completely.

Great help

Been with step change for a couple of years and have 6 months left to pay my consolidated debts. Great company, easy to deal with and they never bug you with constant calls and needless conversations. Always there to help you with your debts Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

They saved my bacon

5
I was young when I got myself into debt due to an abusive relationship. I didn't realise what had happened and what it'd mean for my future until way too late to stop it. I feared for my house. I feared for my future but StepChange made everything better. They spoke to me at great length about how I could deal with my financial difficulties and it really made a difference. I've been on a plan with them now for about 4 years and they are always wonderful if I phone them to discuss something and they are incredibly understanding of changing circumstances. I'd send anyone their way if they ever had financial difficulties. Reviewed on: 10th July 2020
