Review of the StepChange, Debt Management:

Retaking control

5
You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

Non judgemental and quick responses. One of the hardest things I've ever done is acknowledging the situation I was in. Very clear communication and regular updates. Reviewed on: 8th June 2025

Life saving advice and practise

End of mortgage favourable terms and redundancy coincided with credit crunch. I was despondent about my future and had dark thoughts. Contacting StepChange was literally a lifesaver. A realistic workable, affordable plan was put in place and gave me an end date for my debts. Reviewed on: 8th June 2025

Excellent service was in a very bad place and didn't know how iwas getting to get out of the situation I was in. They gave me all the advice I need and now I have a plan in place to be debt free. Highly recommended Reviewed on: 8th June 2025

When I had to give up nursing when the pandemic hit, I was in dire straits as I had been using my credit cards quite a lot. My income fell by 2/3rds, and my bank suggested I contact Stepchange. They helped me to prioritise my finances, reduce my outgoings and pay a little each month to pay off my credit cards. The people I spoke to at Stepchangewere empathic, non-judgemental and offered the advice I needed to make the change from not being able to see way out of my debt, to handling it and not having to worry about it so much. Each year we do a review and make sure I am still able to afford the payments. Reviewed on: 8th June 2025
