They really helped me.

5
They really helped me out when I was in bad financial difficulty due to lack of working hours and my debts were out of control. I was on a token payment for quite a while but StepChange were very patient and new that I was desperate to get a full time job. Eventually I did and even though I'm now on a Debt Management Plan through them I'm at least paying more towards my debt and they will be cleared sooner than expected. This is a fantastic company willing to really help people in dire need, can't thank them enough as I'm sure it will be quite a tough job to do Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Fab from start to finish!

Fab from start to finish! Allowed me to get my debts under control without feeling like I was being judged for being in debt. The advisors I have spoken to have all been really helpful, and being able to make changes online quickly and easily is brilliant. I have recommended Step change to several people who have also signed up. After being in debt my entire adult life I now feel like my finances are finally under control ☺️ Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
