Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

5
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

Excellent Service! I only wish I'd got in touch with them sooner. They've been extremely helpful, giving very clear, understandable advice & it's like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders because it's no longer just me dealing with things on my own. I've now got Step Change helping me with everything. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Massive wight off my shoulders

5
I was heavily in debt, avoiding creditors and constantly worried about how I was even going to be able to carry on living, that was untill my now fiancee pointing me in step changes direction. This turned out to be a good decision as they were brilliant! They didn't judge me and was very professional and friendly which put me at ease. Once they had all my income and out goings they came up with a few options, each was clearly explained to me and then I chose which way I want to go and an affordable payment plan was put in place. After almost two and a half years I've just over 6 months to go until I'm debt free!! From the minute I spoke with them it felt like a wight had been lifted off my shoulders..... Would highly recommend step change to anyone that needs help with their debts. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026
