StepChange helped me when I was at the lowest ebb of my life. The advisor I first spoke with was efficient but kind and delivered some hope that there was a way out of the financial crisis I was in. There is still work for the customer; Stepchange didn’t help when I was dealing with a particularly unhelpful company and I had to deal with all that myself. That is the only negative part of the experience I had. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Best of the best

That first phone call will change your life

5
It feels like there is no way out, no release. You spend every single day praying the postman doesn't put letters through your door, keep getting missed calls on your phone, praying you don't get "That" knock on the door....Sound Familiar? This was me 3 years ago before I finally pushed myself to ask for help, That first phone call to step change was the hardest, most painful phone call I've ever made, but the person at the other end of the phone was so understanding, they listened to what I had to say, and after a few more phone calls backwards and forwards, they set me up With a Debt management plan, they spoke to all my creditors, and after a few weeks, the demanding letters stopped coming! The phone calls stopped! Very slowly but surely, my credit rating is creeping up. And it feels like the weight of the world has lifted. I promise that once you are past that first phone call, your life will change for the better. And trust me, if you think your balance of debt is high, they have heard of bigger amounts! Don't be afraid, make the call. Honestly it WILL change your life! Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
