Brilliant, non-judgemental support and help

Thanks to stepchange I can now sleep at night, open post without fear, and answer the telephone without worry. Their help has enabled me to be debt free in just 12 months, after having struggled on my own for almost 10 years. My health has improved as well as my emotional and mental health. I can not thank step change enough for their help, support and organisation. Thank you thank you thank you! Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Relief from worry

The whole experience lifted a weight of our shoulders. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and non- judgemental. Brilliant. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Life savers

If these people hadn't been around to help me, I don't know how I would have coped. There is always a friendly voice at the end of the phone and advice is always given. The process of setting up my DMP was so easy and best of all, nobody is there to judge you. During the current Coronavirus pandemic I had to reduce payments due to being furloughed but this was dealt with easily and professionally. Thank you Stepchange Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Feeling normal again

Stepchange has made me feel normal again . It has helped me slowly start to clear my debts without the worry of a debt collector banging on my door and without me having to deal with my creditors directly because they do that for you. The staff at stepchange are understanding and caring . They totally understand that life and finances are always changing. So they are flexible and able to make sure you can afford the monthly payments before it is agreed . I have had the best experience of stepchange so far and I am truly thankful for all they have done to help me live my life without fear . I would totally recommend Stepchange to everyone who has debt to be cleared . Reviewed on: 9th July 2020
