Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Absolutely fantastic!

5
They have been excellent. I did look at debt management company but about 30% of the amount I would be paying to them to clear my debts would be going to them as fees. Making it even longer to repay my debts. Take my advice. Just go straight to Step Change. Absolutely fantastic. Reviewed on: 31st May 2025

I was at my wits end, petrified of the situation I had got myself into. I phoned StepChange and they were so helpful and gave me hope that I could carry on. I have a debt management plan that I update each year. I am so grateful to StepChange for helping me be able to sleep at night and give me peace at last. It will take a long time to pay it all off but at least I will do that eventually and I can live in the meantime. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
