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

Step Change - Life Changers

From beginning to end Step Change treated me with respect, kindness and help. It took me 2 years plus to become debt free but is a wonderful feeling, I feel free! Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

The Step Change website is very easy to navigate and the detail needed to be entered to get advise are very easy to follow. In my case a debt management plan was advised and the setup and monthly management of this has been seamless and stress free. When I have had to speak to SC they have been very friendly and understanding everytime. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

StepChange the way to get your life back on track.

I was drowning in debt and was so stressed about it not knowing how to deal with it. once I built up enough courage to make that initial call I felt the weight of the world had been lifted. I didn’t feel judged and they gave me a clear plan on how to make a realistic debt management plan. Ten years on I have changed the way I spend money by ensuring I pay in cash that I have saved instead of using credit with the high interest rates. The valuable information and support I received from StepChange I now share with friends and family who may be heading in the same direction I was going prior to taking control of my debt.

What would I do without StepChange its a question I find asking myself quite often. To the brink of dispair to hope is how I would describe the work they do. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Before approaching step change I was in a desperate financial situation after having severe fraud committed against me. Step change assisted me in setting a tight but realistic budget to enable me to address my debts. They contacted my creditors and got the repayment solutions accepted. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

I can’t praise StepChange more than enough

I can’t praise StepChange more than enough, they are the light that shines in the darkness. Honestly couldn’t think what I would’ve done without them. Highly recommended! Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Exceptionally professional service

From first telephone call, to first monthly repayment, excellent communication all round. Never felt judged and each team member I've spoken with, have been very reassuring and kind. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
