Returned a QoL for the whole family

My circumstances changed dramatically leaving me in a position where debt was running away from me and my mail, post box and phone was inundated by creditors. Stepchange was a life changer, I wasn’t scrabbling to try to get payments made or losing sleep anymore. I got to engage in positive life experiences rather than having them pass by obscured by worry or doubt. I can’t thank them enough. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

From unmanagabel debt to a working debt management plan

5
I found myself in pretty severe financial difficulties about six months after the Pandemic Lockdown finished with reduced work and difficulty in finding other options to replace lost income. I contacted my bank and they directed me to StepChange. It was a tentative first contact that quickly became easier as I was listened to, was given sound advice and eventually had an agreed DMP (Debt Management Plan) put into place. Ever since money management has become easier but most of all thanks to an outstanding professional sevice from StepChange, I have left behind worrying myself sick trying to cope with everything financial on my own i am now able to function.

Since signing up for a DMP with step change our lives have changed for the better. The feeling of our debit being cleared and being able to afford to live is amazing. There was no judgement from the advisors about our situation and everyone we’ve spoken to has been supportive and empathetic. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
