There are a number of possibilities here.  There may be errors on your credit reports. Human beings are after all, the ones entering all that data all day long.  Mistakes can and do happen.  It’s also possible that your credit report was pulled repeatedly.  That can really lower your score too.  Beware of credit card companies that try to catch you at the cash register with offers of 10% off if you take their credit card offer right now!  Each time a company makes that offer, your credit report is pulled and this will lower your score.  It can be a negative net loss against what may seem like the gain of getting a credit card.  Those little cards only do so much to help your score and all those credit reports being pulled without you having to think twice are no good at all.
