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

Very professional.

Awful - Just made everything so much worst.

Just made everything so much worst. I things that were meant to be added to my plan weren't. I was given mis information told different things by different people. And i get more letters now from my lenders than i ever got before. Im 100 tomes more stressed with no end in sight. And i still can't afford my debt. Wish i had never bothered Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

They can sometimes take a few days to reply to messages, but given the service is free, this is a very small inconvenience Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Much appreciated

They've helped me manage my debts so I know what I've got left every month. Their customer service is excellent and they put me at ease about the whole process. I can now see me paying off what I owe in the future, which is a good feeling. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
