Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

5
It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish. It took 8 days in total. I'm sitting here now a lot happier than I was 3 weeks ago. They put me forward (against their recommendation) for a DRO, which was passed 2 weeks ago, and because I have their backing, I have been able to liaise with my creditors a lot easier, and they have actually helped me due to my underlying health issues. Thank you to them all from Stepchange and also Money Wellness (the people who organised my finances and submitted my DRO application) From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. They all deserve credit and praise for their hard work. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Fantastic service from start to finish made my untenable situation solvable and I am now debt free! my only critic icons are around the administration side of things and that relatively simple requests need chasing to make sure that they are actioned. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Let Stepchange help you take control!

5
After everything spiralled out of control in 2019 and I realised I could no longer meet all my repayments I reached out to Stepchange. They put a debt management plan in place for me, it was easy to set up. They are really helpful and managing everything online is also so easy. I now have 3 more payments left and I truly couldn’t have done it without them. It took all the worry away. If you are worrying about debt, reach out to them, in a couple of years you will thank yourself! Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I was so worried about our debt but on contacting Step change within minutes I felt sheer relief. By the end of the phone call I had a clear picture of what my choices were. Upon selecting the most appropriate way forward Step change contacted creditors etc on our behalf. The advisors are so friendly and helpful and the whole process made simple with their guidance. I wish I had made the call so much sooner. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
