Life changer

I was £50k in debt mainly credit cards built up over years. I cannot thank STEP CHANGE enough. Created a Debt Management Plan for me, contacted my 11 creditors, agreed affordable pay back amounts, now all chasing calls have stopped. I can actually sleep at night again. Anyone else in similar position PLEASE make that call or register online. Changed my life. If this review works for one other person out there it is worth me doing it Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I was frightened, and no longer able to function

I was frightened, and no longer able to enjoy any aspest of my life, my debts had completely taken over, I did not believe any solution could be found, put in place and actioned. Picking up the phone and asking for help was one of the hardest things to do, I never felt judged, but always encouraged to take some control. Truly thank you. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

StepChange empowered me to take courageous steps

5
I suffer from several progressively debilitating health conditions. This fact severely affected my quality of life. In an effort to improve my quality of life, I made unwise financial decisions, which ultimately put me in a position of great stress and turmoil. StepChange helped me to formulate a Debt Management Plan. All the staff at StepChange were so friendly and helpful. I felt confident that I could trust their judgment and experience. They literally empowered me to take courageous steps to get my life back. A Debt Management Plan with StepChange requires very little maintenance, other than reviewing your debts and budget at least once a year. Despite my health conditions, I get to enjoy my life again and pay off my debts. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
