I was drowning in debt.

I was drowning in debt and my life was becoming unbearable. I needed an answer to my problems and Stepchange were the answer. From my very first contact with them, they have been totally professional, sympathetic and helpful. They have helped me turn my life around and I would recommend them to anyone who has any type of debt problems. Reviewed on: 25th May 2024

Finding debt freedom.

5
I fell into serious debt as the result of what someone else did. It was a real shock as i like to keep up to date and pay my accounts as soon as they fall due. Then I was not able to do that. Initially I found a company to manage payments but it cost me. Then I discovered StepChange. They stood as a buffer between me and my debtors. I sorted out how much I could afford to pay to my creditors and they sorted out the payments. There were no more phone calls from my debtors and I was able to have a more peaceful life. It took years, but at last, I made the final payment and my debtors were all satisfied. StepChange helped considerably in that I did not have to approach my debtors. I was always honest with StepChange and they certainly did their best for me. It is wonderful to know that my debts are now cleared and I don't have debts hanging over my head any more. I just wish I had found StepChange sooner than I did. Reviewed on: 25th May 2024
