Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

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

I really wish that I had known about the help that StepChange could give sooner, it would have saved me a lot of anguish and stopped me from borrowing even more to try to pay off some of my creditors. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

After losing my dad in 2018 I started spending what he left me to try and make myself and my kids happy .. wasn't long before I spent it all and I wasn't feeling anybetter . I sent for a credit card and was rather surprised I got it with me not working. I soon maxed that out so I sent for another and I received that too ... same thing spending to try and be happy but I was slipping down in debt so had to get another card to pay the two others off .. I struggled to pay the 3 cards off so ended up getting a loan and then another loan I was just robbing Peter to pay paul .. I went to my Dr's because I was a total mess and she gave me stepchange information so I got in touch .. I honestly thought my dad had sent me this angel who took my call that day she was so helpful and nothing was too much to ask .. we soon got a plan together.. I had 3 months breathing space which was brilliant best thing i ever did .. I am eternally grateful to stepchange and I will gladly recommend to anybody who needs help .. thankyou to everyone at stepchange you are all brilliant Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Best Option For Me

I had a considerable amount of debt and after speaking to a StepChange advisor, a Debt Management Plan best suited my needs. They dealt with all of my creditors and formulated a payment plan that suited them and didn't leave me struggling to find the payment each month. Although my income hasn't grown exponentially due to my age I am increasing my payments each year in the hope of clearing the debt quicker. The support and advice they give is second to none and are always on hand to assist if needed. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
