Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Excellent service all round

Cannot praise enough everyone I have dealt with has been most helpful in some cases over and beyond what I would have expected they have certainly got us back on the road to recovery with a sensible affordable plan Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

There is light at the end of the tunnel.

I was in 20k plus debt, borrowing off Peter to pay Paul, credit cards spiralling out of control and just in a really bad place, my credit cards just kept increasing my limit, so it was my fault as I kept thinking I'd get on top of it, just never happened. I found StepChange and they sorted it all out, gave me the help I needed in a few simple steps, now I'm paying an affordable repayment plan, all my creditors are being paid on time every month, and I feel a lot better, not stressed or worried about how to make ends meet. I know it will take time but it will be worth every minute, don't sit in silence in that big black hole, reach out and get the help from StepChange it will change your life and you will start to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks StepChange for all your help. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

When I was in a lot of financial difficulty and was scared about my next steps, I contacted stepchange who spoke with me indepth about how they could help, and arranged a repayment plan for me, all free of charge. Without them I would probably have had to go bankrupt. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Anxiety Relieved

5
They have taken away a lot of worry from us with their solution to our indebtedness with all our debtors agreeing to their programme for the monthly repayments. So they have taken a great weight off allowing us to get on with our lives without dreading the almost daily pressure of bills or unwanted phone calls from the numerous organisations we owe money to.
