After the government introduced IR35 I lost 20k overnight leaving me in financial difficulties. I had to change jobs and owed 24k which I was managing before even though I was aware I had taken on a lot. Stepchange have managed it for me with a number I’m comfortable with and I’ve paid 10k back so far. I’ve had no problems with debtors hassling me. I would recommend them wholeheartedly.
