Amazing customer service

5
I was continually struggling with trying to make even minimum payments on my credit cards.i entered everything I could think of that I needed to pay out each month and Stepchange agreed a payment amount equalling what was left over. They took over my debts and contacted all the relevant companies to arrange a payment. The stress was limited immediately and 1 year on I was able to renew my plan even though I had to increase outgoing s. The staff are very considerate and non judgemental when you speak to them. Thank you Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Life Changing Support Provided for me

5
I was recommended Stepchange by Fraud Support after being a victim of Cyber Fraud. Without Stepchange I would have lost everything, I was clinically depressed and in a very bad place. Thanks to their support I am still here today and fighting my way back to some kind of life. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Took the stress out of debt.

Took the stress out of debt. Handled all my creditors, froze interest, stopped the demanding letters and ensured I could meet my commitments. I can sleep peacefully thanks to step change and they’re always just a phone call away if there’s any problems Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I was in a bad place and in debt due to being a victim of financial abuse. The team were helpful and supportive and got me back on track. I was talked through possible debt solutions and found the one which was best for me, they literally saved me Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Step change literally change my life.

5
Step change literally change my life. Instead of robbing Peter to pay Paul just to get it through the the month, I'm paying about a 1/3 less for my debts per month and have money not to stress if I'm going to eat or buy fuel at the end of the month. Can't recommend enough. And even better is there's no judgement what so ever. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
