Review of the StepChange, Debt Management:

Pride doesn't get you out of the rut, Step Change do!

5
During a period of time where debts had mounted, interest shot up, cost of living crisis, then losing my job, I had to shove pride to the side and ask for help. Step Change were a God send! So much information which was in lehmans terms, so much help and support online with excellent tools. When speaking with several people over the phone, each person was so nice, empathetic and didn't make me feel what I anticipated... like a school headteacher telling you what you should have done. Step Change listened and looked at all the ways they could support, with clear expectations on what would happen. The sprocess has been seemless and updating the details afterwards is so simple. Despite the initial barrage and still constant letters from companies, Step Change is like your force field who sort all the long worded legal stuff out so I don't have to. It's meant a lot of stress being lifted, I have found new work and feel so much better in myself, as has been observed by friends and family. After years of burying my head and letting pride take control, I now have the control back, which I would never have done without Step Change. There is still a long road to go, and there is still the debt to pay back, however, we can now make it month to month on our new budget, without having to add more debt. Reviewed on: 28th May 2024

I had seen debt adverts for ages feeling scared but knowing deep down I needed help. I knew I needed to do something when I started taking out cash on my credit card to pay bills. StepChange are a life saver. They gave me excellent advice, talked me through every step and I’m now on a debt management plan with them. I feel about 10 stone lighter and like I can breathe for the first time in years. I make one payment every month that is split between my creditors. I have a budget now that stick to every month all thanks to StepChange. Really cannot thank them enough. Reviewed on: 12th July 2025
