Non-judgmental, friendly but businesslike.

I'm relieved that, although I still have debts, they are being managed in a sustainable and stress-free way. I didn't want to be or anticipate being in debt when I retired but at least there is now some light at the end of the tunnel. I am grateful to Stepchange for dealing with me in a non-judgmental and friendly but businesslike way. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Peace of mind

Step Change has given me the peace of mind that my debt is being payed back in an affordable way. I’m so glad that a charity told me about them. I couldn’t recommend them enough. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I was in dept and did not know were to turn I was advised to contact dept change and never looked back Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Supportive and informative advice. Exceptional service.

I went to StepChange when I was right at the point of disaster after a change in circumstances. The person I spoke to talked through my options and recommended debt management, and said I was entitled to Breathing Space which was a godsend. I am now almost 3 years into my plan and it has changed my life so much. I can afford to live again without the constant fear which was making me quite ill. I cannot thank them enough for their help.

Step Change gives a way out of debt misery.

Step Change is a company that took all the pressure out of financial mess I had accumulated in a acrimonious divorce, without step change these creditors would have continued to threaten and bullied me into my downward debt spiral. Their help and guidance replaced dread with positivity that I was not the only one and things will get better, although still in debt, I do not feel helpless, well done StepChange.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel

There compassion and professionalism was and continues to be amazing. I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel thanks to Stepchange and their staff. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
