I was in a bad place.

I was in a bad place. I had made the mistake of borrowing money in order to clear debts and using credit cards to live. The more I paid off one set of debts the more another new set grew. Stepchange were understanding, nonjudgmental and made a world of difference. They made me realise I was not the only one in similar situations and came up with an action plan that allows me to pay off my debts and live as well. I had no hesitation in recommending Stepchange when a colleague at work got into financial trouble and have recently given the same advice to a friend. Reviewed on: 26th May 2025

Instant relief

5
By the time anybody gets to the stage of admitting defeat with their financial situation, they are worn out and at the end of the rope, worried that they will be made to feel stupid. Stepchange does not make anybody feel that way, they never say ‘ why did you buy that?’ It was such a relief to speak with somebody that did not judge your choices they just helped you get out of the whole that you had dug for yourself. I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders and I no longer felt ashamed. Reviewed on: 26th May 2025
