Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Excellent service all round

5
Cannot praise enough everyone I have dealt with has been most helpful in some cases over and beyond what I would have expected they have certainly got us back on the road to recovery with a sensible affordable plan Reviewed on: 8th July 2020

A life saver

5
I can honestly say that Step Change saved my life. Drowning in debt and not knowing where to turn, I too the step to call them and it is one of the best things I ever did. A friendly, efficient and knowledgable lady took me through the process of setting up a Debt Management Plan and the rest..as they say..is history. Step Change take care of your creditors on your behalf which is great in itself as late payments often propagates threatening letters, calls from unpleasant individuals who turn every day into an utter nightmare. They look after the day to day management of your debts which, speaking from experience, massively reduces the dread, pressure and embarrassment that indebtedness brings. Reviewed on: 11th July 2023
