Lifesaver

I got myself in a complete financial mess due to mental health problems. I was being harrassed by banks daily and it was destroying me. My mum suggested having a look at StepChange. The best descision I ever made! Everything was done online, every time I've contacted them they have been incredibly helpful and reply within a day or so. I haven't been contacted by any banks in a few years now which has allowed me to recover and get my life back on track. If you're having financial problems, please contact StepChange!

Stop taking the ostrich approach

As a person who would normally bury their head in the sand and try and ignore debt, hoping the debt fairies would take it away, I have found StepChange to be a breath of fresh air. They have offered me the support needed to retake control of my debts in a manageable way. Even when I had a significant change in my financial situation, they offered me a number of options and supported me in my decision. Would highly recommend! Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

I did not sleep at night.

When I first contacted Step change I did not sleep at night, worried myself, too many crazy thoughts, what was life all about. Credit cards were my down fall, a divorce, no work, no money , well live on credit cards. Spoke to Step change two phone calls, listened to them, started a repaymeny plan, and ever since still paying, but now sleep, answer the phone, live a normal life Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
