Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

5
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

Step Change were so friendly and helpful and professional. I had been so worried about calling but they were amazing. I went from being in total despair to relief and having a light at the end of the tunnel. Every person I spoke to treated me with such respect and didn’t look down on me. They were so kind. Totally recommend them. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Stepchange are the best

Stepchange put my mind at rest, negotiated with all those that i owe so i could only pay what i can afford. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

StepChange literally changed my life.

5
To say that StepChange changed my life would be an understatement. I had amassed debts through no real fault of my own (reduced family income along with redundancy and a critical illness in my family), but was losing sleep and worrying about how I could possibly replay back what I owed. StepChange supported me with a realistic debt management plan with my creditors where I could afford monthly payments while stopping interest accruing at a frightening rate. I have almost paid it off now, but my credit score has already improved again which means I have options and hope for the future for me and my family. I should have made these decisions even earlier but was embarrassed. StepChange restored my dignity throughout the whole process - for the first time, I did not feel alone with dealing with my debts.
