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

It's more than i expected, I've been helped to control my spending and realise how my needs outweigh my wants. I have not used credit ever since I started, kept my credit score stable, and helps me to understand how debt can be made easier to resolve. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Non judgemental

I contacted Step Change when I split with my wife and suddenly found myself in unmanageable debt. The lady on the phone was so helpful and non judgemental it put me at ease straight away. I'm three and a bit years in now, my debt is halved and I have an end date on my plan which gets closer all the time. My payments are manageable and handled for me, so no unsettling letters coming through the letterbox. Stepchange really did put me on the right path at the most difficult time of my life.
