Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Steps to mindful financial management

Step Change provided informative and easily accessible financial management support, at a time when I felt overwhelmed by debt and without any other alternative repayment options. Reviewed on: 9th June 2025

Wonderful

StepChange gave me clear, calm and easy‑to‑understand debt advice when I was really worried and didn’t know what to do. They listened carefully to my situation, explained all my options simply, and helped me set up a plan I could actually afford. Every person I spoke to was kind, patient and non‑judgmental — it took so much stress and weight off my shoulders. They handled all the talks with my creditors, which saved me so much worry and time. I honestly don’t think I could have got through it without them. They are professional, reliable and completely free — I recommend them to anyone struggling with debt. Reviewed on: 13th May 2026

When I was at my lowest with worry and anxiousness,...

When I was at my lowest with worry and anxiousness, I turned first to Citizens Advice who were very helpful and passed me over to Stepchange. From the very first phone call to them, I felt a lot better and they got me into a positive frame of mind. With a lot of determination, year by year, I have managed to reduce my debt and expect to clear everything by the Autumn. Reviewed on: 13th May 2026

I was in a state of panic when I phoned for help.

I was in a state of panic when I phoned for help. I didn't know what to expect or how things were going to go forward. When they answered and assisted me through the process, it was like they lifted a huge weight off my shoulders. I could actually breath again. The people I have spoken with, throughout my time with Step change, have been caring, understanding, knowledgeable and true problem solvers. I would not be here without Step change!

Ist Class Debt Management

You are not judged on your debt. Options clearly explained. Easy to follow budget sheet to fill in, if not sure help on the end of the phone. Reviewed on: 13th May 2026

StepChange helped me in a crisis.

Supporting an adult child on the autism spectrum who ran up terrifying debts impacted on my own finances. I used my own credit cards and bank loans to clear their debts, then my mortgage shot up during the Liz Truss premiership. StepChange set up payments with my with creditors, and it is a huge weight off my mind. Reviewed on: 13th May 2026
