A wonderful Organisation

Step Change helped me to get back in control of my debts and buffered me from my creditors. They got me "Breathing Space" which truly was breathing space. I cannot praise them enough Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

Beautiful caring people

My mortgage is about to double. I'm on a debt management plan, which has been a life saver. I rang a wonderfully helpful lady. Halfway through the conversation, I explained if I sounded a bit confused etc. It's probably because my brother passed away a month ago and my wife had a positive cancer diagnosis the day before. This mortgage doubling was just adding to my stress and worry. Not only did she advise me about the help stepchange could give me. She went out of her day to offer me comfort, support and empathy. She found me contact numbers for Macmillan and a bereavement counselling service. By now I'm sobbing, like ugly snot bubble crying. Not a good look for anyone let alone a 53 year old man. She was so so kind it was beautiful. I can now concentrate on helping my wife get better. Thank you xx Reviewed on: 8th July 2023

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
