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

I can now sleep at nights.

I have suffered from depression since being diagnosed with PTSD in 1989. Life finally got on top of me, and my general health started to deteriorate as well, when I found I couldn't cope with my financial situation - I was out of work through illness and couldn't find another job because of my age, nearly 70. I was juggling credit cards just to pay the rent, let alone other expenses. I couldn't sleep, and if I did, I awoke in the early hours in a panic. I turned to Stepchange after seeing it recommended on the Martin Lewis website. They have taken control of my debts (made interest free), and I now pay a manageable sum monthly to my creditors. It's a relatively simple process. Simply produce a budget and they do the rest by dealing with the banks. I can now sleep at nights. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025
