Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

Excellent Service

Whenever I’ve had to deal with the customer service team, they’ve been supportive and understanding each time I’ve contacted them. Couldn’t ask for more! Reviewed on: 15th May 2024

Debt is often unspoken.

Debt is often something we don't talk about. However, now that more people are struggling it's a topic that is easier to approach. Personally, it's a very difficult subject to talk about with friends and family. Which is why despite the great service received I couldn't recommend without being asked directly.

Free impartial advice and debt management support.

Free impartial advice and debt management support. Invaluable in my time of crisis in establishing my financial debt management plan for repayment if creditors based on affordability. Regular updates for peace of mind. Reviewed on: 15th May 2024

Glad I contacted StepChange best thing I've ever done.

I was so nervous contacting StepChange at first but I am so glad I did. They are so helpful kind and caring. Never judged me and put a plan in place which has really helped me over the last 4 years. My debt was spiralling out of control but now I can actually sleeping at night not worrying about how am I going to find the money to pay. If you are struggling then I would most definitely contact StepChange. Reviewed on: 15th May 2024
