Really helped manage the stress of debt

5
I have nothing but praise for the support of people at step change. They helped me manage my debt which accrued in the context of my mental health problems. They were kind caring and professional directing me to the best way to handle my debts and also get mental health support. Without their help and guidance I don’t know where I’d be. I would recommend their support to anyone. Thank you Stepchange Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Excellent service

5
I came to step change due to credit card issues. I explained it wasn't manageable and they then went on to explain how they could help me. It was a straight forward service and took a weight off my mind. I've continued what I believe to be a manageable amount. They deserve the Top Award for helping myself and others.

They have well and truly changed my life and I now no longer worry about money. Thanks to their support I have been able to pay off over £8,000 of my debt and I am one month away from being completely debt free. Thank you Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Amazing company

5
Brilliant company, their process is very easy to do and once all sorted it's kind of set and forget until you need a review, which again is a very simple process. Helped out massively when there was seemingly no options in site. Highly recommended if you're struggling and looking for help. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

So helpful

5
I was treated so well, I wasn’t judged. Online was user friendly, the advice given was good and released so much anxiety from my life when it was all set up. I’ve been with them for over a year and had my review which again was easy to do. Anytime I have spoken to anyone there they have been so helpful and knowledgable, thank you Reviewed on: 7th July 2023
