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

StepChange has literally saved my life... I lost my job and became overwhelmed with my bills at they heaped up. When I though I was out of options and had nowhere to go... StepChange helped me. The help I received was kind, professional and non-judgemental. I'm so thankful to a friend for telling me about StepChange. I have been able to pay off my debt at a rate that I can manage and in one year... I will be fully debt free. They have helped sleep again at night and to get my confidence back.
