I had never heard of Stepchange until I needed them. One of the credit card companies put me on to them. At first I was reluctant as I just like to deal with things myself. Also I thought a third party would just complicate things. How wrong was I. Got in touch with them - excellent service. It was such an easy process from start to finish. The burden that I did not know I was carrying was lifted. I would rate Stepchange 20 out of 10. If you find yourself in debt and struggling, there is really no need for you to worry. Stepchange takes all that away. They ask for information from me. I provided them with the information and that was it. Magic - They negotiate with banks or credit card companies an affordable repayment which suits both the client and relevant companies. Don't think about it - Just Do It. Lift the phone and talk to someone - it will be the best phone call you will ever make. Thank You Stepchange. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

The people I spoke to were very patient, understanding and supportive. My whole experience with them has been very relaxed and stress free. I would recommend to people who are struggling with debts, they care about their clients and will only give their clients options that are best suited for ther situation. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I had large debts exacerbated by my severe mental health problems. StepChange helped me get my debts in order. They dealt with my debtors and this helped me enormously. I now no longer feel fearful. I can always review my progress and being able to see the debt shrinking is such a boost. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
