Should have done it sooner.

Stepchange has been understanding and supportive with a clear process to follow. Above all, you finally feel that you are no longer alone and that there is a pathway to a brighter future. My only regret is that I didn't start this process sooner. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

Life Raft in a Stormy Sea.

I've been ignoring my debt issues for decades, I've eventually engaged with Step Change, and although no one can make the debt issue disappear overnight, I now feel with there help I'm dealing my situation. The online process was really well thought out, and easy to use, the only hard part is accepting you need help. Please don't feel ashamed just ask. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

Please don't suffer in silence

Please don't suffer in silence, or cry at night, me and my husband rang Step Change, the gentleman who spoke with me, did not judge, or make us feel stupid, instead he asked how much came into our household and how much our outgoings were each month, then he worked out an affordable Debt Management Plan of paying our debts off. I cried at the thought of being debt free. It took 3 years and 3 months, it was very hard going at times, but we stuck at it. Since leaving Step Change with everything paid off, we saved enough money for a new tumble dryer, what a great feeling to pay in cash. We also saved enough for a long weekend in Scarborough, wonderful. Step Change have helped us so much, with their kindness, helpfulness and empathy. This was the best experience ever. No more debt, and no more weight on our shoulders Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
