Going through financial difficulty is hard - Stepchange led us through the issues and helped find solutions without judging us. We were not just a number but human beings and that meant a lot. They made a disaster become clear and helped not only to find solutions but implement them too. Thank you Stepchange Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Breathing Space

5
Before contacting Step Change, I felt like I was drowning in debt. I honestly was beside myself. I went onto the Step Change website not knowing what lay ahead. I filled out a straight forward form with about my situation. After a few days Step Change got back to me with a Debt Management Plan. For a fixed sum each month all of my creditors will be paid. I feel so relieved that I won't be being hounded by these companies now. Step Change has given me a lifeline. I thoroughly recommend anyone struggling with debt to go on to the Step Change website or call them and see how they can help. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Can’t thank Step change enough. Really helped me when I thought there was no hope. Set up DMP and on the road to a more financial stable future. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

The best help and support!

Setting up a DMP with Stepchange was so simple, the website was very user friendly and all the steps were straightforward. There's no need to be on the phone for hours anymore as almost everything you need to do/change/update/give more details on, can all be done via the website or email. They remind you about additional steps you can take such as breathing space but you don't receive constant reminders or pushy emails and you can take the application at your own pace so you don't feel rushed. All my options, pros and cons were laid out clearly to help me make the best decision based on my personal situation. I never felt overwhelmed during the process with Stepchange and still feel supported even after set up and making regular payments Reviewed on: 13th July 2023
