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

Amazing service

Very helpful I don't keep getting the creditors sending me emails ask for more money or bugging me to phone them Reviewed on: 7th June 2025

Such a relief

We were in over our heads due to my having to give up work through illness. Stepchange were brilliant. They listened and never once judged us. We have nearly finished paying it all, but are really grateful to the lovely people we have dealt with there. Would recommend them to anyone else who is finding their financial burdens weighing them down. After one phone call the weight was taken straight off of my shoulders. Reviewed on: 7th June 2025

Lifeline

From start to finish they provide you with tailored support around your needs. The best customer service and focus to get you back in control of your finances. One of the best decisions I ever made was contacting them and getting help. Reviewed on: 7th June 2025
