They literally saved my life! I was despairing and depressed as my bank had shut my account and started charging astronomical interest on my credit cards. I was recommended Stepchange and they froze the exorbitant interest charges so I could stand a chance of paying off the capital. Still think they are angels. Thank you all so much!

Step change helped me get my life back on track

Was in lots of debt even though I was working in a professional field. I felt embarrassed asking for help but it had to be done. I was treated with respect and with professionalism. Step change has changed my life and got me on track to sort out my debts and will be debt free in 12 months. It has made me reflect on my purchases and what I need and don't need. It has definitely made me reflect on using credit effectively to increase my credit score and not to get into uncontrollable debt again. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
