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

I was so worried about my debts then got introduced to Step Change through CAB, I rang them, the advisor listened was not judgemental. She advised me on what to do and gave me reassurance that they would work with me to get the best option of becoming debt free. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Able to breathe again!

I had too much credit card debt across many lenders. I gave the call centre a call and spoke to a member of staff who listened and then gave me a list of options to choose from. There was no pushing towards a particular resolution and the consequences of each were made clear. Once I had decided the "joining" was easy and my creditors stopped contacting me. The regular reminders to review my outgoings is also made easy, so important in the current economic climate. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

Brilliant team

I often feel overwhelmed with the challenge of paying off my debt but they always reassure me and make me feel that I can meet the challenge head on. Reviewed on: 6th May 2026

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
