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

Excellent, non judgmental advice

Step Change listened to my situation, help me put together a budget, and explained my options clearly and concisely. At no time were they critical or judgmental, only sympathetic and helpfully. I highly recommend Step Change for anyone experiencing debt problems. They help lift a huge burden and set me on the road to financial recovery Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Outstanding support

Earlier this year I left an abusive relationship, I was lost, I was ashamed, I didn’t know where to turn. The embarrassment of the economic abuse made me feel like I was to blame so for many months I struggled trying to pay back loans I’d not taken. When I finally realised I needed help I was referred to step change. They listened, they understood and for the first time I felt like I wasn’t being judged. They took the time to go over my options. They supported me with budgeting. They were outstanding. If nothing more I’d just like to thank them for being supportive during such a tough and difficult time. Reviewed on: 10th July 2023

Excellent help given

I had put off seeking help, my sister encouraged me to make the first move. I have not looked back since. I thought I would be judged for having got into such a state with my finances but soon saw that my worries and concerns were easily and carefully dealt with. I feel much happier now.
