Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

5
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

Step change has helped us get out of debt quicker.

Step change has helped us get out of debt quicker. Rather than 10 years they were able to help us pay off our debts in 4.5 years. All of the money we paid them was split between all of the people we owed money to, not like another company we used who took half of what we paid in. Everyone we have spoken with has been very friendly, understanding and so helpful. Reviewed on: 15th May 2024
