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

A new start

StepChange helped me through a difficult time after losing my partner. I'd run up substantial debt in caring for my partner over her last few years and my anxiety was through the roof! Stepchange stepped in and handled a restructuring of my debt and a single, affordable payment per month Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Well worth your time

I was told about Step change by a friend and was dubious, but a little time invested looking into it paid off: I was able to clear a significant debt when I couldn't see another way out. It also made me look at my spending in detail and be more realistic about what I could and couldn't afford. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
