Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

Should have done it sooner.

Stepchange has been understanding and supportive with a clear process to follow. Above all, you finally feel that you are no longer alone and that there is a pathway to a brighter future. My only regret is that I didn't start this process sooner. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

Life Raft in a Stormy Sea.

Following chronic illness and bereavement StepChange provided the tools for me to manage the debts that occurred. Without their help I don't know where I'd be. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

I've been ignoring my debt issues for decades, I've eventually engaged with Step Change, and although no one can make the debt issue disappear overnight, I now feel with there help I'm dealing my situation. The online process was really well thought out, and easy to use, the only hard part is accepting you need help. Please don't feel ashamed just ask. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
