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

Life Savers

I had never been in debt until I finished work and my income was my pension. I became overwhelmed with my situation and absolutely did not know where to turn. My mental health was badly impacted by the situation. Stepchange was suggested to me. I contacted them and recieved non judgemental support with several options explained to me. There was a period of " breathing space" which did enable me to breathe for the first time in months. A programme was agreed and the StepChange contacted the companies involved and obtained a payment plan. It took me 3 years to clear my debts and StepChange supported me throughout. I dont say this lightly StepChange saved my life Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Can’t thank Stepchange enough

Can’t thank stepchange enough for their help they’ve honestly transformed our life as a family, we were drowning in monthly repayments and too embarrassed to seek help, stepchange couldn’t have been nicer and now we have one manageable payment to focus on each month and we can visibly notice our debt reducing which is a huge weight off our mind Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Stepchange changed my life completely.

Stepchange changed my life completely. Before I contacted them I was ashamed and guilty as to how much debt I had got into. Stepchange helped me regain my independence by helping me to one easily affordable payment. The consultant i spoke to was polite and friendly and didn't judge me Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
