I had to sell my business at a loss due to a change of circumstances & was left with huge debts, I was totally overwhelmed, but stepchange set up a debt management plan with my creditors, got the interest frozen & helped me sort out a sensible budget which still allowed me to live! All completely free of charge…..I really can’t recommend them enough ❤️ Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I was in deep despair over my debt feeling embarrassed and a failure despite working 2 jobs trying to keep my head about water. I finally got the courage and after a non judgmental conversation over the phone, they set me up with a debt management plan. One that was realistic and affordable. I have paid just over half of my debt back which is a massive achievement and I will continue with this until it has been paid in full. The benefit of using StepChange is that they gelp you set up a monthly budget will leads to becoming debt free. I would definitely recommend StepChange to anyone with financial issues. They have given me a new lease of life. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Reaching out to step change was possible one the most important decisions we’ve ever made. Not only did they help us get our finances under control after Covid ripped out business apart but were now in a position where we will be debt free this year. That alone has potentially saved us thousands of pounds and credit issues. If your in trouble call them and let them help you. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
