Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

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

Unexpected help and advice.

When I had nowhere to turn for advice and help, one of the companies I was dealing with suggested STEPCHANGE. I don’t think I would have coped without their help. I felt they chased the wolves from my door. There aren’t enough superlatives to say how wonderful they are. I had a lot of change to deal with when they stepped in, taking my financial worry and making it a goal to aspire to. Thank you FOO the kind and understanding advisors who make me feel I wasn’t the only person going through this. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2025
