Stepchange company best help for debt and free

5
I turned to step change after my partner lost his job due to ill health, and as I am a student, we couldn't pay our two loans and one credit card. We were so stressed, and it affected our mental health. I turned to step-change after a friend recommended them. It was so easy to do it online, and a good website to track my progress and regular emails from staff at step-change to keep in touch about the progress. Finally, the DMP was accepted which made me and my partner relieved. Now our mental health is better knowing our debt is being paid, maybe only a little but we will get there someday.

Step change have helped me so much with how to manage my debt. They have contacted everyone I am in debt too and explained the situation. They do not judge you and without their help I don't know what I would have done. Very easy to contact and full forms in. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

They lifted the weight off my shoulders

I was struggling incredibly with my debt, feeling there was no way out and being stuck in the constant cycle of minimum payments and interest fees. Step change helped me and put all my debts into one single payment, now my cards and loan are locked/closed and I’m on track to becoming debt free. Couldn’t be happier. If you’re thinking about doing it, do it! Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Piece of mind

Being in debt is an awfully worrying thing. You constantly fret over money, managing it and keeping everyone happy. But at times it's too stressful and you worry about things getting too much to handle. Step Change have helped me by taking the pressure off. I pay them one payment a month and they sort everything else out for me. They give advice when debt collecting agencies are being arsey, demanding and threatening and make you feel reassured that you're doing all you can. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023
