Debt Review Removal — Marikana | North West
Marikana, east of Rustenburg, is a mining community through and through, with Wonderkop, Mooinooi and the mine villages around it. We help Marikana mineworkers and their families close their debt review files and, when pay is steady, leave early.
See If You Qualify in MarikanaDebt review removal is not an administrative update. A credit bureau may only remove the flag on a Section 71 clearance certificate or a court order. Anyone offering to "remove the flag overnight" without one of those is operating outside the National Credit Act.
| Clearance Certificate (S.71) | Court-Led Removal (S.87 / 165) | |
|---|---|---|
| When it applies | Every short-term account is paid up (a bond may remain) | Accounts still open, but you are no longer over-indebted |
| Court involved | No | Yes — the magistrate's court for your address |
| Attorney | Not needed | Debt365's panel attorney appears for you |
| Cost | From R2,900 | From R6,500 |
| Typical timeline | 14 to 21 working days | 2 to 3 months |
Mine wages and a court application
Mine payslips include a basic wage plus bonuses, overtime and allowances that change month to month. A magistrate looks at what is reliable, so we show your basic and your average over several months.
If it covers your original instalments, our panel attorney applies to the court for your address. From R6,500, typically 2 to 3 months.
Loans from unregistered lenders in mining towns
Mashonisas are common in mining communities. Their loans are not part of debt review and do not stop a clearance certificate — and a lender holding your bank card or ID is acting unlawfully.
Paid up in Marikana
If every account on your plan is settled, a Section 71 clearance certificate removes the flag: from R2,900, typically 14 to 21 working days.

Is this a scam? How to tell a lawful removal
- Only a Section 71 clearance certificate from a registered debt counsellor, or a court order, can remove a debt review flag. A promise of removal in days without either is not lawful.
- You should get the exact fee in writing after your assessment and approve it before any work starts.
- The National Credit Regulator does not process removals over WhatsApp. We use WhatsApp to collect documents and answer questions; the removal itself is a certificate sent to the bureaus or a court order.
- Check any provider's registration before paying. Ours is NCRDC2403 — search it on www.ncr.org.za.
