Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish. It took 8 days in total. I'm sitting here now a lot happier than I was 3 weeks ago. They put me forward (against their recommendation) for a DRO, which was passed 2 weeks ago, and because I have their backing, I have been able to liaise with my creditors a lot easier, and they have actually helped me due to my underlying health issues. Thank you to them all from Stepchange and also Money Wellness (the people who organised my finances and submitted my DRO application) From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. They all deserve credit and praise for their hard work. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Stepchange have helped with my financial situation and have been sympathetic in my dealings with them. When I have been unable to make my monthly contribution on time Stepchange have helped me by waiting until my funds have reached my account. This has taken a lot of stress away from me, which I am very grateful for. Reviewed on: 26th June 2025

Great Support

When a friend first told me about Step Change, I was reluctant and embarrassed to call them, but when I made the call, the support I received was fantastic, they made me feel at ease and all the embarrassment I had disappeared. My DMP was setup and while on the DMP, I was able to adjust to suit my financial circumstances. Never set there worrying about your debts, when Step Change is there to help. Receiving my congratulations card at the end of my debt was the best feeling. Reviewed on: 25th June 2025

I was in a financial nightmare.

I was in a financial nightmare. I couldn’t keep up with the minimum payments on credit cards and a loan. Every month was a worry and I was only paying the interest. I had heard about Stepchange online. Rang them and they set out a plan to pay my debts at a rate l can manage. They did all work-got in touch with my debtors and arranged it all. I feel so much better, they stay informed from them and review my plan so l know how much and long I have to pay my debt back, at a rate I can manage. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025
