Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

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

Excellent service and advice

After watching hours of debt management videos on YouTube I decided to get control of my problems. StepChange helped me get it over the line and reduced my stress by dealing directly with the card companies Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Thanks to Step Change I was able to start sleeping again. They are very understanding, not in the least bit judgemental; very thankful I found the courage to pick up the phone and talk to them. I have since suggested step-change to acquaintances also struggling with debt. They are a wonderfully supportive organisation, they have been helping me for the past 5 years and I am very appreciative of their help. Contacting step-change removed a massive weight of my shoulders and has given me peace of mind. Stop worrying about debt, do something positive and talk to the experts in debt management, I cannot thank them enough. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
