I have a DMP in place thanks to Stepchange and have to thank them for giving me a chance to sort my financial situation out as the alternative for me was to be a very very dark place as I had a multitude of debts and getting the parties to see I was willing to try and sort my errors out would not have been possible without Stepchange and their brilliant staff. I would say to anyone that they get in touch and start the journey back to recovery and a life again. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Light at the end of the tunnel

5
The best thing I ever did after a gradual accumulation of debt throughout my thirties from getting married,getting a mortgage and a having a young family,was to get on a debt management plan with stepchange and avoid paying extortionate interest to all my creditors,which would've kept me in debt for decade's.I'm now into year 6 of a 6 year plan and have paid back over £28,000 of non-mortgage debt....I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel!!! These guys are brilliant and I would fully recommend getting in touch with them if you are struggling with debt. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
