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

Soon to be debt free.

I am in the final months from being debt free. At the beginning of my journey I could have lost my family and my house - a hopeless situation but with the support of Stepchange and I have thankfully maintained both. When creditors were constantly harassing me I was able to say I have set up a plan with Stepchange which gave me the breathing space to move forward. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

A sympathetic and reassuring voice on the phone helps you not to be so desperate about your situation. This results in some peace of mind and a lot more sleep at night knowing that someone will actually help you take control. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
