I HAD FOOLISHLY GOT MYSELF INTO DEBT AND INTEREST ON THESE DEBTS WAS INCREASING MORE AND MORE EACH MONTH AS I WAS BARELY PAYING THE MINIMUM PAYMENTS AND ON PAPER I HAD MORE MONEY GOING OUT THAN I HAD COMING IN . I WAS AFRAID WHEN THE PHONE RANG OR LETTERS ARRIVED WITH DEMANDS IT GOT TO THE POINT THAT I WAS NOT SLEEPING AT NIGHT I COULD NOT EAT AND IT WAS ALL I THOUGHT ABOUT ALL DAY. I COULD NOT TALK TO ANYONE ABOUT IT AS I FELT ASHAMED .. SOMEONE ON TV WAS TALKING ABOUT STEP CHANGE SO I DECIDED TO CALL THEM . I SPOKE TO A YOUNG MAN WHO WAS SO HELPFUL AND PATIENT AND NON JUDGEMENTAL AND HELPED ME SET UP A PLAN THAT WAS AFFORDABLE FOR ME TO LIVE ON ... I CRIED AFTER MAKING THAT CALL BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE A HUGE WEIGHT HAD BEEN LIFTED OFF ME , THEY CHANGED MY LIFE COMPLETLY THAT DAY ... Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

Step change for advice and help

We were in great financial difficulties with which we thought there was NO WAY OUT, MArtin LEwis had an article on his website about how to get help and advice, we contacted Consumer Credit Counciling Service as it was then it is now step cHange, they advised us what to do and they set up a budget plan for us which we signed up to and started the long slog into clearing the huge debt we had, after 7 years we had paid the debt off and started living again with out the use of Loans Credit Cards or any form of credit. The help they gave us was invaluable and I have personally recommended them to some of my friends who found themselves in the same situation as we were in. Reviewed on: 10th July 2020

I wish I knew earlier about StepChange so I would not run into high dept. It was really overwhelming for me to deal with all the deports and with StepChange it was so easy as they have done it on my behalf and help me create my repayment plan. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020
