Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Retaking control

You've come to the end of your tether, swamped by red letters and final notices. So phone StepChange - one of the best half hours of your life. They sort out what you spend on what, what you owe, what you can afford to pay back after allowances are made for the amount you need to live on. Then they sort out the repayments (through them) and companies listen to them whereas they wouldn't listen to you, because they have standing. And the best bit (apart from the relief of finally doing something positive about things) is that they're a charity and won't charge you a penny. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2017

I recently had a fall and can’t walk anymore and need medical supplies extra expenses I contacted Stepchange who promptly contacted my creditors and had my payments reduced taking a lot of stress off me I would highly recommend Stepchange Reviewed on: 1st June 2026

My debts got out of control.

My debts got out of control after having to use credit cards for everyday spending. My husband was made redundant a month after having a baby, not something we ever imagined would happen. I was paying the minimum but spending more. £35k later it got to a point where I could no longer afford the monthly payments and I started to panic. Called step change and they were able to advise me how to approach my debts, made contact with my lenders and a debt management plan was put in place. A monthly payment I can afford along with my normal outgoings. I can now sit down in the evening and not worry I’m going further into debt and provide for my family. Reviewed on: 1st June 2026
