Light at the end of the tunnel!

I couldn’t escape paying the minimum payments on cards & credit accounts & never clearing any of my debts. It was getting to the point where I was struggling to even pay that. I was constantly worried about making payments & it was overwhelming. In desperation, after seeing Martin Lewis mention Stepchange I nervously contacted them. I shouldn’t have worried because the person, I spoke to was kind, passed no judgement but listened & suggested a DMP was the way forward. After completing a budget form & working out what I could repay they contacted my creditors to halt interest & work out a plan with them. I’d never have cleared any of these debts on my own. I’m eternally grateful that now my debts are virtually cleared & I can see a debt free future ahead. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

I was in a world if bother with debt and burying my head in the sand and just wracking up more and more. I got to a point where I didn't know what to do as I couldn't afford the repayments and my living costs. The payments I was making were only clearing that months interest. I came across Stepchange and plucked up the courage to call them. I was expecting to be judged amd made to feel silly for the situation I'd got myself in. I couldn't have been more wrong. Unfortunately the name of the person I spoke to escapes me, but he was so empathetic and understanding of my situation. He explained everything and supported me putting an affordable repayment plan in place. It's the best financial decision I have made in years speaking to Stepchange. Less than 9 months on and I've cleared £6000 of my debt and the interest on all but one of Mt debts has been frozen. For the first time in years I'm making progress with getting myself out of the mess I find myself in. I would highly recommend that if you're struggling with debt, to speak to stepchange. They will help you. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025
