I got into debt through no fault of my own, but Stepchange were incredible in dealing with my money problems, and spoke to my creditors to come to a fair and affordable payment. They were there when I needed them with great advice, and no judgement. I will be forever grateful. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2021

A life saver; literally

With chronic health problems and encircling debt I was sinking slowly into very much dark place. Like most people I left it to the last moment to deal with the debt having deluded myself I had things under control. Having come clean about the dentist was my brother that suggested I contact Stepchange. I was very apprehensive thinking them to be either judgemental and aggressive, or profiting in some way from my debt; I couldn't have been more wrong! The staff were friendly and professional keen to help get things sorted out. I have never felt rushed or belittled and with internet access I still remain in control of my account but with the support and guidance by the staff at StepChange. They provide a broad umbrella from under which one can breath again, and explore available options in a professional and calming environment of reduced stress and anxiety. . They are always there to answer questions and explain anything one doesn't understand. Their website is very clear to understand as is ones personal debt management quite a miracle of many stats. I cannot thank and praise them enough!! Reviewed on: 2nd August 2021

Care, empathy, loyalty: The MOTHER of all Debt Management companies. Because that's how it feels, like your Mother is there for you Reviewed on: 2nd August 2021

Wondeful People!

Due to mental health problems, I had been stuck doing jobs that paid little more than minimum wage for nearly 20 years, and had run up humongous credit card debts. Even though I hated my job, I carried on working for nearly three years after I claimed my State pension and started paying off my debts, but in the end I just couldn't cope anymore and lost my job. I was terrified I would end up homeless and living on the streets (aged 66) and really seriously contemplated suicide. Fortunately, a friend recommended StepChange and I honestly think they saved my life! Reviewed on: 1st August 2021

How Step Change changed my life

Each month when I got paid within a week I was back in my overdraft, such was the amount of debt I was in. Step Change has lifted this weight from my shoulders and for the first time in many years I actually have some money left before pay day!! Thank you. Reviewed on: 1st August 2021
