I was a nervous wreck with debts piling up after being made redundant. Stepchange was recommended by a family member and it was the best thing I ever did. They talked me through everything and set up a manageable payment scheme. Reviewed on: 19th May 2024

Life changing support!

I can’t say enough good things about StepChange. I had got myself into a very scary place financially due to health issues and I felt completely trapped and couldn’t see a way out. Step Change from the very beginning were so empathetic and reassuring and have taken away so much stress that I didn’t even realise I was living with. Being able to pay one single payment a month instead of 9+ AND interest has been lifesaving! Every single representative that I have spoken with has been warm and knowledgeable and I always recommend their services to friends and family who are also struggling financially. Debt can be such a taboo thing to talk about but accepting I needed help and contacting Step Change has been the best thing I’ve ever done. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

From despair to elation

From being in despair because of the size of my debts to the feeling of elation knowing that in three months time when they are all paid off, it was worth that phone call six years ago. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I thought I had it all under control, then out of the blue circumstances changed and in a heart beat out came the credit cards to pay for every day life while not cutting back on the luxuries. Then came the realisation I owe over £50,000.00 and interest piling on. Car and motorcycle had to be sold and no holidays……. Then I found Stepchange, one call and before anything was put in place I felt like the weight of the world had been lifted. Then came the help and support and unbelievably if was free. I have been managing to clear the debts with the help of Stepchange and I do not have to deal with the individual companies. One payment and everyone is happy. I can now see the light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Thank you Stepchange. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
