I trust StepChange totally.

I trust StepChange totally. I was in freefall with mounting debts and it was all I thought about, leaving me stressed, dizzy and not knowing what to do. I called StepChange and the advisor I spoke to made me feel comfortable enough to tell my story. Instead of being embarrassing the process was cathartic. After going through my household budget we were able to come up with a payment plan (a Debt Management Plan - DMP) so all my creditors would receive a monthly payment. I cried when the process was complete and had a full night's sleep for the first time in months. I receive a monthly statement and I'm able to review the budget and DMP periodically to ensure I'm managing. If you're struggling then StepChange will help you take control.

Saviour from bankruptcy....

StepChange have saved me potentially from losing my home and assets by setting up a debt management plan, when the current cost of living crisis hit. I was unfortunate to have an accident at work, which left me with a spinal injury and unable to continue to be employed. Having to rely on payments from the welfare system, to live and pay for everything, including a mortgage, house maintenance, bills and adaptive equipment to make my home safe for me to live in. I have being able to meet every payment on the Debt Management Plan, with advise and understanding of my situation from StepChange. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
