Stepchange changed my life

I went to stepchange in 2020 when covid affected my income and I was struggling with my debt. They contacted all my creditors for me, which I had stopped doing, dodging calls and ignoring letters, as the anxiety that was linked to this was debilitating.their website is very easy to use, and within 24 hours I had a payment plan set up. I've just paid my last payment and I'm officially debt free, something that felt impossible 4 years ago. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
