Look at your credit report card and note if anything has changed. It could be any number of things. If your utilization went up from charging more on your cards or from closing an account, that could drop your score. If you had some inquiries done, that could drop your score. If you missed a payment, that could drop your score.

I WENT TO TRANSUNION AND CHECK MY SCORE AND REPORT. TRANSUNION GAVE ME A 835 SCORE.. IT WAS BASED ON THE SAME INFORMATION. WHY IS THAT.

Credit karma was alittle high in the scores compared to experian. I noted  by 39pts. But it all Good information. Everytime you get your credit pulled for a credit check from a company  it knocks plenty of points off , and when your credit cards ratios is not less than 20% it hurts score also. So thats one thing I notice , even if I pay on time, the credit companies could get the information a little later than when i pay off  and still shows not paid in full.
