score went down with 100% on time cc payments and no new debt.
Good question? Vote for this

My credit score went down slightly and I have no idea why. I have never been late on any payments and all my accounts are paid in full every month, but once.

yeah - I think this site is not figuring things correctly, All my payments are on time and I don't owe much so my credit score gets lower every month because I am being responsible.

Actually, I've heard that FICO is using stricter guidelines when they calculate scores.  It's probably nothing you did.

Your credit score only raises if you go into debt stay in debt and have a good pymt. record.  The FICO score is an I LOVE DEBT  score.
