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

I was drowned in debt and having sleepless night, I could not save or go on a holiday with my family. Fortunately, a friend introduce step change to me, they resolved my debt issues on that same day I contacted them. Since then, I've never been contacted by any debtor. The repayment plan is tailored according to what I've got and can afford. Step-change is a life saver. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Have been supported by Stepchange to manage my debts for years now, I don’t know what I would have done without them as a struggling single mum on a low income. The overwhelmingly difficult task of dealing with debtors alone was taken on by them, a huge burden lifted. I cannot rate their service highly enough. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
