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

Without StepChange, I would have had a breakdown. They supported me in contacting the organisations that I owed money to and helped me plan to pay off my considerable debts (following a sudden decrease in income). The end is in sight and I have less than a year left to pay it all off. A massive relief to me and my family. No judgement from staff but lots of good advice. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

My DMP with Stepchange

4
Upon doing my review, I was really struggling with numerous debts on Credit Cards and Loans and was drowning in debt, having sleepless nights worried about affording to live with my 3 Year old daughter and wife. I completed a DMP online with Stepchange who then have kept the comms really good, I am now 2 months into my DMP and they have been really helpful every step of the way, The only downside i’d say is the wait to contact people and sometimes there is a delay in contacting creditors, But overall my stress and anxiety has reduced thanks to this DMP. Thank you so much. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
