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

StepChange was literally a breath of fresh air when I was in a very difficult position, post covid. They helped me every step of the way. I can't thank them enough for the support they offered. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders after chatting with them and getting the process moving. I cannot recommend them highly enough - Thank you Team StepChange.

I'm so glad I contacted StepChange and got a debt plan sorted, my creditors were piling on the interest, it was taking ages to pay it off! It didn't take long once I had a debt management plan with them. Reviewed on: 6th June 2025

I didn’t know where to turn when I was told I had a brain tumour and couldn’t work, lost my income and could no longer afford my payments to credit card companies. Stepchange made it easy to see what I could afford, dealt with my creditors and took the load. Of worry off my shoulders, thanks Stepchange. Reviewed on: 6th June 2025

StepChange saved me from financial ruin.

5
StepChange saved me from financial ruin. I had over £20,000 of debt across multiple debtors and struggling to make minimum payments above what I was paying in interest. The advisor I spoke to was very helpful creating a budget and their website also gave some ranges of expenditure for people in similar living situations which is very helpful if you're not great at budgeting - probably one of the main reasons for getting into debt in the first place. The whole process was really easy and I felt a weight come off my shoulders knowing they would contact all the companies on my behalf and negotiate a payment plan that meant I could actually pay off what I owe.
