Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

5
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

Steps to stress free

We were extremely worried and stressed about our financial situation which was effecting our health and wellbeing’s. Our bank was unable to help us and recommend us to Steps change debt charity. From our first call to them we felt there was someone who understood our problems and were not judgemental , what a relief, Such wonderful advisors took us step by step through the whole procedure, we called them when ever we were unsure , and each time we phoned they were wonderful.This is a Charity who deliver and deserve to be recognised for there ongoing and good work.

Debt that builds up and then hits you in the face is terrifying. Without the help and support that they have given me, I would not have coped with the situation I was in. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Sons money problems

I got in touch with stepchange to get help for my son. They have been amazing once I’d sent all debt and financial details they sorted it all out. One payment each month to them and they then pay it out to debtors. Less stressful life now couldn’t thank them enough. 5 star service also get a statement each month so I know what’s being paid out . Reviewed on: 8th July 2020
