The process of setting up a budget and establishing an amount has been really smooth and efficient. I was even more impressed by the fact that StepChange contacted the lenders who approved the repayment plans. It’s such a relief. I’m beyond grateful for all the help. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

The service was so comforting when I was very vulnerable - no judgements and competent people offering me options I wasn’t aware of. Now almost all of my creditors are waiting for payment until I get my mortgage back on track and I have been sleeping so much better. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
