Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

I was a bit weary about contacting StepChange but they were so helpful and made me feel at ease. They explained everything and how it all worked. I didn’t need to speak to them as that was a problem with my anxiety so was able to do it all on line Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

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
