Excellent from the very first step made me feel so at ease Reviewed on: 25th May 2025

Stepchange has turned my life around

5
Stepchange has turned my life around and released me of my financial shadow that surrounded me. It’s been difficult to have such a limited amount of money each month but it’s made me more aware of my spending in general. They offer fantastic advice and I love how writing everything down in their budget annually - or more if I need- helps. I am nearly half way through paying bacj my debts and I feel such a sense of empowerment that Stepchange has given me. I don’t know what I would have done without them. Thank you for absolutely everything and giving me my life back and a hope for the future. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

People I spoke to on the phone were very empathetic and kind. They listen well and explain things without jargon. They answer your queries without judgement. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Awful, slow and incompetent.

1
Impossible to contact (over an hour wait or they just cut you off), and get basic information wrong even when provided multiple times and multiple ways. The inline portal has very limited functionality and isn’t user friendly. They are also super slow at implementing anything, all of which just adds to stress Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
