Life Savers

I was really struggling with my finances, which meant It was having a real bad effect on my health, out of desperation I contacted Step Change, who helped me to set up a debt management plan, which has made an enormous difference to my health, they really are my life saver.

Pride doesn't get you out of the rut, Step Change do!

During a period of time where debts had mounted, interest shot up, cost of living crisis, then losing my job, I had to shove pride to the side and ask for help. Step Change were a God send! So much information which was in lehmans terms, so much help and support online with excellent tools. When speaking with several people over the phone, each person was so nice, empathetic and didn't make me feel what I anticipated... like a school headteacher telling you what you should have done. Step Change listened and looked at all the ways they could support, with clear expectations on what would happen. The sprocess has been seemless and updating the details afterwards is so simple. Despite the initial barrage and still constant letters from companies, Step Change is like your force field who sort all the long worded legal stuff out so I don't have to. It's meant a lot of stress being lifted, I have found new work and feel so much better in myself, as has been observed by friends and family. After years of burying my head and letting pride take control, I now have the control back, which I would never have done without Step Change. There is still a long road to go, and there is still the debt to pay back, however, we can now make it month to month on our new budget, without having to add more debt. Reviewed on: 28th May 2024
