Really helpfull and knowledgeable people. The advisor gave me advise and guided me through the whole process to set up my debt management plan. Now, I don't wake up during the night worrying because I know my financial situation getting and my debt is reducing. Reviewed on: 7th June 2025

Great service and has literally changed my life

I was drowning and didn’t know what to do until I set up my DMP with StepChange - they have been understanding and supportive even during the pandemic and uncertainty that came with that. I’m so happy to have found StepChange Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Very helpful,

Always a shoulder to lean on. Talk you through the budget, makes life easier and always have a peace of mind knowing that the debts are under control. All threatening letters stop coming through and the creditors receive the amount you can afford due to the step change instructions. Will always recommend them as they are free of charge.

Saviours

I had no idea someone like StepChange existed. And someone can help take the stress away when credit mounts and struggling to juggle. It is hard to admit you need help and Stepchange guide through everything and once a payment plan is in place you know where you are up to. I would not even have a doubt to recommend Step change and spread awareness as I’m sure there are many people like myself who may have sought help sooner if they knew about them. All of the team are professional polite and after 8 years of communication I can’t thank them enough. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Absolutely lifted the weight from my shoulders

I was knee deep in debt... I thought I could handle the monthly payments but my outgoings were piling up. In tears I went to Stepchange and within a phone call they completely lifted the heavy weight I was experiencing. I was feeling like such a failure but Stepchange never judged me. Only helped and reassured me things will improve with time. They’re truly there to help you. They set up a monthly plan for me and made sure I could afford to eat, rent, petrol for work etc...and they contacted my debtors. In just over a years time I’ll be debt free thanks to Stepchange. I 100% recommend you make the same call I made to them 5 years ago. I was really struggling hard, in tears all the time but Stepchange helped greatly. I still took responsibility for my debts and paying back every penny but with Stepchange it’s done stress free. So you can live every day without anxious worrying. Relieve yourself from the heavy weight and make that call. Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

Making The World of Difference

I was unfortunate enough to find myself in need of help with my financial in 2019 and when all looked bleak, it helped to learn and know about the help StepChange can offer. From first discussing your issue with them up to starting a plan with them, it is all seamless and flawless too. I would have been lost without them and they deserve all the best in this world.
