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

Difficult times ?

Difficult times. Step change are empathetic, totally understanding of what you’re going through. Great help in difficult times/ situations. Needed help with all finances, fearful, getting sorted with StepChange, was easy, they took the fear of talking about finances away from me! Didn’t worry after the first few sentences, I knew I was making right decision/ choice with StepChange. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Trust StepChange to get you back on track

It was difficult to take the first step and make the call, but I'm glad I did. It was the most sensible thing I did. Once I knew I had the support of StepChange, it took off a load of financial worry from me. Just knowing that I was making manageable monthly payments and that I didn't have to deal directly with my creditors made a huge difference. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
