Saved from sinking

I still can't believe companies like this exist!

When I got to my lowest moment financially, I'm so glad I found StepChange online. It wasn't until I started to be honest with my creditors about my situation that they recommended me to StepChange and I was pleased to say they're already helping me, and I'm on my way to setting up my DMP. The service I've received has been incredible, treating me as an individual rather than a number. I feel very lucky that StepChange was able to offer me help with their influence across the industry, it's honestly turned my life around. Thank you so much! Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Excellent advice and practical solutions tailor made for me

5
With the cost of living escalating and my personal circumstances changing incredibly fast I needed advice to get perspective and not feel as though I was going to drown in silence. Step Change talked me through many things and helped me to see a way forward and practical and realistic solutions to allay my fears and stay in financial control. The fact they evaluate and ask for feedback is good and means they are always listening to clients - customers. Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Million stars

Step change helped me in more ways than just debt management. I am a very proud and stubborn man that refuses help from anyone, from my first call to finalising my dmp the customer service was at the highest level. I could not ask for a more helpful and kind organisation, I have and will continue to recommend to anyone that are in the same situation I was in. Because of all the team I can actually start to consider actually getting married to my fiancé and it not just be a dream that would never happen. Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Grown up support with compassion

It was such a relief to talk to Step Change. The person on the end the phone was so understanding, helpful, and practical. I've never done anything like this before and it was a big step to make that phone call. Thank you to Step Change for helping me transition from overwhelm into having a manageable plan. Every person I have spoken to has given me good advice and gone over and above their role. Nothing is too much trouble. Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Saved me from debt hell

5
Step Change were so helpful. I was mired in debt and couldn't see a light. When I finally admitted the problem to myself, Step Change were able to give me good advice. I gave them my complete list of debts and my income/expenditure and we were able to work out how much I could afford. They then took this to all my creditors and agreed the plan with them. I would never have been able to do this alone but they know exactly what to do and it was so painless. I am very grateful to them for all their help that has turned a nightmare into merely a problem.
