They are extra friendly & make you feel extremely comfortable. I was in a terrible financial situation & they sorted my repayments within a couple of weeks. The lady that helped me was Becky who was amazing Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

I was struggling with huge debts and owed far more in monthly payments than my wages covered. I was considering bankruptcy after ignoring the issue for a long time. I was guided to contact Stepchange and this was the first time I had hope that my nightmare was over. It felt like a good friend helping me battle the debt collectors and giving me the breathing space I desperately needed. One simple (and more importantly realistic and affordable) payment each month and the rest is all done for you. A yearly appraisal of my budget and if necessary occasional holiday payment pauses. I could finally sleep at night and have the money to pay my bills and still enjoy life. It took me 9 years to clear nearly £20k of debt, but I am now free from it all. I have a really healthy credit score, but more importantly I now manage my debts much more responsibly. I cannot thank this charity enough for saving me from the worst days of my life.

The best decision I’ve made!

I was told about Step Change by my friend and in all honesty it was the best decision I’ve made. The process was straightforward and when I have had to call to give some more information everyone was so patient and helpful. I couldn’t recommend them enough. It has made life so much easier. Thank you Step Change Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
