Joined StepChange 6 years ago Senior Citizens both in our 70’s business had to be closed due to health problems and were desperate for help. Recommended by friend to see if Step Change could help and the rest is history Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

So easy to complete online.

So easy to complete online. I did everything online and email. I get overwhelmed talking to people sometimes, so was glad they had this option. When I did have a query two months into my plan. The advisor on the phone was courteous and helpful. Not at all stressful using Step Change. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Debt free thanks to StepChange

I was over £30K in debt when I went to StepChange and under 14 years managed to clear the entire debt within my means. They allowed for you to address your debt without compromising on day to day essentials and the occasional treat !! I would recommend the support from StepChange to anybody . I am still debt free and will not ever be in debt again. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
