Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

5
You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

Amazing people that care.

I was in crippling debt after my partner left me with nothing and companies started chasing me for COVID pause payments. Stepchange helped me by taking my debt and contacting the companies on my behalf. They helped me make the repayments and managed the communications between myself and the collectors. Not only did they help me get back on top of my finances and improved my credit score they also saved my life. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
