The Team are awesome

5
They have been brilliant, when I was at a crisis, they were there to offer advice and help. They do such an awesome job, I just wish there was more personnel, it can be difficult to speak with advisors because they are inundated with calls. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

I approached Step Change about a year ago and they helped me organise my debts and dealt with my creditors. Their help took an enormous amount of stress from me and allowed me to get on with my life knowing my debts were being met. life is better now my debt is reducing and under control and Step Change are only a phone call away if I need any help.. Thank You! Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

The best debt management company

5
These guys are brilliant, they are reassuring, none judgmental, kind, caring. Every step of the way was pretty smooth. There were stressful times, but that’s not on them, if anything they eased that stress. They always answered my questions and calmed me. Genuinely a brilliant organisation, would recommend to anyone struggling to pay their debts. I wasn’t struggling but had so many I got overwhelmed, they calmed me and put things into perspective that the money I owed in my whole life span isn’t a lot. That whilst I needed to start the DMP, it wasn’t unmanageable and gave me a good time frame of how long it would take to pay. I now don’t stress about debts and that is, 100% thanks to them. Definitely award winning service from start to finish. As you can tell, I cannot sing their praises enough Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Support on financial matters

Splendid process helped with support and procedures!! Support is there when needed!! Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Gratitude

5
I can not thank step change enough for being there for me. I took over the role of full time carer for my mother. Leaving a good business, paying all my creditors on time and without hesitation, too having to live on carers allowance and no other income, and getting into debt. Thankfully someone pointed me in the direction of Step Change and through them , i am now paying creditors what i can within my budget, which in turn gives me less stress, and able to be a carer without the worry of when someone will knock on the door. A Big thank you for being there . Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Caring, compassionate, professional .. and attentive to me.

5
The arrival of the cost-of-living shockwave drove me into unsustainable payments on existing debt. I had zero support from anyone, particularly my bank. I approached Step Change desperate for guidance and help. The advisors are exceptionally helpful and attentive to my financial position. I will ALWAYS advise anyone in my position to turn to Step Change. They deliver! They care! Reviewed on: 7th July 2023
