Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

5
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

Best decision I ever made in managing my debt.

Best decision I ever made regarding managing my debt. The person on the phone was so patient and understanding and took time to evaluate and suggest the best way/options to tackle it. I felt I could sleep at night and was so less stressed and worried and in control of it all. I’m not out of it yet, but I’m confident in my ability to see it through. What is also so important is the ability to pick up the phone and talk to someone on the site quickly and easily Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
