Stepchange turned my life around

5
Stepchange helped me to turn my problem with debt around when no one else seemed to have time or wanted to listen. My debt was quite large from credit cards and they approached each debtor on my behalf and sorted out a payment schedule that i could manage. When I lost my job they agreed to put payments on hold for a while to give me breathing space and I started it up again after 2 months. I have had my plan with StepChange for over 4 years now and I am reaching the end of paying back my debt. I can't thank them enough for helping me out in what was an overwhelming situation. I would recommend that anyone struggling with debts talk to Stepchange. They are non judgemental, knowledgeable and approachable and carry a lot ot influence with the big financial companies and lenders to handle your issues on your behalf. Reviewed on: 14th May 2024

We were in a bad place worrying every week and step change helped us sort all our card problems out and stop the mad interest added monthly to help us get the debt down and pay our debt off slowly but surely still allowing us to live as a family Reviewed on: 13th May 2024

A solution at last.

I was initially worried about my initial phone call to StepChange. The member of staff I spoke to made the process easy and made me feel comfortable as I went through the process of revealing my debt. It became such a relief after all the worry to be able to sort it out with a Debt Management Plan. Reviewed on: 13th May 2024

Help and advice when needed

5
Always ready to help and suggest best way forward when help was needed.We spent several years clearing our debt with their guidance and cannot fault them.The biggest benefit was they negotiated with our creditors to stop interest being applied which meant that every penny we paid came off our debt, without that help we would have taken much longer to be debt free.
