Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

It was absolutely fantastic help from start to finish.

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

Great support

Always there to answer questions, judgement free. The advice received instantly made me feel like there was a way out when I’d become bogged down with my finances. Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Peace of mind

Very easy to set up online, also good telephone support wish I had not left it so long to apply. Have had no contact with creditors except statements so no phone calls chasing me. Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Wish I had contacted them sooner.

I was able to pay my debts like credit card/catalogues but then the cost of living became ridiculous so it was a choice of feeding my children or paying my debts. Obviously my children came first. I was worried out of my mind how I was going to pay my debts but I was informed about step change so went online completed the forms and everything was sorted. All the worry was gone. I would 1000% recommend step change. It was such an easy process. Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Amazing service

This has changed my life, far less more stressfull thinking about all my debts getting out of control and overwelming me. It has helped me budget on a monthly basis and get back in control. Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Amazing charity

StepChange have been instrumental in getting my fianances back on track and I think everyone should know about them. Before I knew about them, I'd have gone to a debt consolidation loan. StepChange and their fantastic staff are the only people who have managed to set my finances straight. Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Customer focused caring organisation

Very efficient organised service very customer focused would highly recommend Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

The best by far

Efficient, helpful and effective. They don't judge you, they are just there to help. I also spoke to some other organisations who have commercial interests and I did not feel they were as trustworthy. I feel very confident that I made the right decision, which will in time give me a chance to start over. Couldn't have asked for more Reviewed on: 8th July 2023
