A Weight Off my Mind

In all honesty I wish I'd contacted Step Change sooner than I did. Process was so simple and it's a huge weight off my mind now that I no longer have to deal with credit companies harassing me to up my minimum monthly payments Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

I couldn’t be more grateful for StepChange’s help in a very complex debt situation- they listened, understood and helped put a debt management plan in place with my mum’s bank. Really first rate service and a continuity while sorting it all out. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Helped me to feel a lot more secure in my payments to creditors. Always quick to answer their phones and really friendly when you speak to them Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Saved me

5
I was literally in a very bad way, emotionally and financially, my mental health was the worst it could be and my debts were out of control. I finally had to face into my problem and call Stepchange. I was embarrassed at how I had let my life and finances get out of control. The call was easy, no judging. It takes a bit of time to get it all sorted, lots of letters but after a couple of weeks I felt in control for the first time in two years. It’s going to take me very long time to clear my debt but at least I have an affordable plan. Everyone I have dealt with has been understanding. It’s a really horrible feeling but Stepchange have pretty much saved my life. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023
