StepChange are a life saver

StepChange have been excellent and very patient from the start.

Before I spoke to them I felt I was trapped in a debt spiral following my divorce. StepChange helped me by talking to my creditors and arranging a payment plan at no cost. I now have a manageable debt payment that’s given me my life back. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

You are not alone

I was worried at first about discussing my debts but they was non judgemental and made me feel I wasn't on my own. We went through all my options and we come up with a plan together what was right for me, they was very understanding and I felt so relieved afterwards Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Brilliant Service

After falling into arrears due to losing my job in covid, Step Change helped me arrange an affordable plan to repay my creditors. They dealt with all my creditors and set up payment arrangement on my behalf, which took a massive amount of stress off off me. I've been on my debt management plan 2 years now and they still make all my payments on my behalf as well as sending me regular statements and review my financial situation annually. Absolutely brilliant service, which is free. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
