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

Regained Control and Peace of Mind Thanks to StepChange

Using StepChange was a real turning point for me. They helped me set up a debt management plan that reduced my monthly payments and, more importantly, gave me back a sense of control over my finances. Before contacting them, things felt like they were spiralling — but their support was calm, clear, and non-judgemental. I’m so grateful for the help they gave me when I needed it most.

I was so upset and stressed over debt but stepchange helped so much. I have been with step change for 2 years and predicted to finish in 2 years. They make it very easy, customer service have been fantastic but I’ve only had to call up once. Stress has been lifted and direct debit comes out monthly on time which helps.

Fantastic

I was in debt and struggling both financially and mentally. After contacting StepChange, they talked through everything and came up with the best option for me. They contacted my creditors on my behalf and successfully negotiated manageable monthly payments on my behalf. I pay StepChange one monthly payment and they pay my creditors. This has also stopped the never ending letters and phone calls from creditors. I would recommend them to anyone struggling with debt. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
