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

Stepchange gave me hope and changed my life.

I contacted Stepchange after years of accumulating debt because my outgoings were more than my incomings. I spent so long thinking that I was dealing with it, I was making the minimum repayments so everything was fine, wasn't it? Unfortunately the situation just spiralled out of control and I was left with no way to even buy food for our children to eat. Deciding to contact Stepchange changed my life. Stepchange were understanding, didn't judge and just made me feel that there was a light at the end of the tunnel. My payments were consolidated and their website is so easy to navigate and keep track of my outstanding debts and to review the payments I've made so far. I live checking to see how far I've come and it's all thanks to Stepchange. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024
