I honestly cannot imagine where my life would be without the help I have received (and continue to receive) from StepChange. From the very first phone call I made to them I was reassured and never judged about my personal debt. They got me breathing space which I had never heard of before, took all of my information and dealt with all my debts when I couldn’t cope. I am over half way through clearing my debt and by Christmas 2025 I will be debt free for the first time in about 15 years. The relief I felt from the first phone call has only grown month by month seeing my balance get smaller and smaller. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend them to anyone.

Guardian Angels with helpful hands.

Did not want to know why I was in debt, so were not judgmental.Run thru budgets (annually) advising what would be deemed unacceptable whilst making sure that each category of expenditure was realistic and sustainable to arrive at a net excess income figure to declare to creditor(s). Then approached them saving me the mental anguish of doing so or fending off potentially aggressive calls/letters, etc. I.E. Peace of mind. Obviously I have had to live with a reduced amount of disposable income but hey it's a small price to pay to get out of the hole irrespective of what caused it be it Scam/profligate spending/life-changing event.
