HELP FROM PEOPLE WHO CARE

I've been using Stepgchange since February now and they're incredibly Empathetic and easy to deal with. No one makes you feel stupid or silly. They help. Every time something has need to change or updating they're there on the phone talking you through what is needed or explaining a process/procedure. I would highly recommend people to use them when necessary. A massive shout out to all the staff especially those who's been dealing with my case directly. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

Life above the black hole

The service I have received from this company has been exceptional, from feeling like I had no future in sight and sinking into a black hole. The support and help I received from this team have given me a new lease of life without the constant worry of making ends meet. Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

I didn't know where to turn them I found out about Step Change.

I found Step Change by accident. I had been receiving advice from a company with a very similar name. I became suspicious when they told me they would do a budget for me and on receiving it, there were some figures inflated to pad it out. I told that company I had changed my mind but they did pester me for a few days until I told them I was with Step Change and please stop calling me. It was such a different experience with Step change; every person I have spoken with was immediately respectful, reassuring and helpful. They presented me with suitable options of debt solutions unlike the previous company who led me down what would have been the worse path to take. I will be eternally grateful to Step Change.

Seemless friendly service

When I contacted Step Change, I was in emotional distress and complete panic due to overwhelming debts. They reassured me and set up everything I needed with my creditors, communicating every step of the way so I knew what was happening. I'm forever grateful and can once again breathe more easily!
