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

StepChange saved me from 5 figure debt blackhole

I approached StepChange when I found myself in 5 figure debt with no appealing exit in sight, these people quite simply saved me... I'm 3 years into a DMP now with almost 50% cleared, still a few years to go but there is a light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Very helpful and reassuring servic

My experience with StepChange was very positive. They explained everything clearly and made the whole process easy to understand, with no pressure at all. They took the time to review my situation and offered options that suited me. The advisors were kind, patient, and professional. I felt much more in control and reassured after speaking with them. I would definitely recommend their service to anyone struggling with debt. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Best FREE debt management company

I was on a different dpm with another company and I wouldn’t be nearly out of debt if it wasn’t for stepchange, helped with all my creditors and on the right track. The service is free so I wasn’t carrying on paying interest too the other company. Just wish I knew about stepchange awhile ago Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
