Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

5
It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish. It took 8 days in total. I'm sitting here now a lot happier than I was 3 weeks ago. They put me forward (against their recommendation) for a DRO, which was passed 2 weeks ago, and because I have their backing, I have been able to liaise with my creditors a lot easier, and they have actually helped me due to my underlying health issues. Thank you to them all from Stepchange and also Money Wellness (the people who organised my finances and submitted my DRO application) From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. They all deserve credit and praise for their hard work. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Lifeline

5
I ended up in debt and heavy borrowing due to my wife’s mental illness. The stress was affecting every part of my life. I contacted Stepchange and they basically threw me a lifeline. They organised my repayments and froze any action from my creditors. I have been able to control the budget in regards to every day life and also the repayments. Everything is online and communicating with Stepchange is brilliant. I have now been with Stepchange for about 6 months and been able to keep my head above water. I have a clear plan and making headway into paying all of my debts off. Thank you to everyone at Stepchange. I must add that every time I called them, there was always a non judgemental person on the other end of the phone and they were very supporting and sympathetic. And I might they wer extremely knowledgeable. Reviewed on: 24th July 2023
