I had a new CA report on all three CR on 3/15/13. Experian FAKO immediately dropped 42 points. FAKO yes, but still devastating. I got the CA to agree to delete. Well today I received an alert from EX that my score had increased 42 points. Cool, the CA deleted tradeline from EX and I regained what I'd lost. Score! Foolishly (???) I was expecting to get an alert from SW today that my TU and EQ scores had also increased. I wasn't expecting 42 points but I was definitely expecting something. At the end of my work day when I hadn't received any alerts, I decide to call TU and EQ to find out if there was still a CA on my CR from Debt Recovery Solutions. TU said yes and EQ said no. So I decide it's ok to go ahead and buy an updated My FICO EQ CR since EQ confirmed it was removed. My score is still at 697. Is that not odd?
On 3/4/13 EQ was 687.
On 4/4/13 EQ jumped to 697 due to another 2 1/2 year old CA being deleted.
I never received an EQ score reduction when the new CA hit my CR on 3/15. Is that why I didn't receive an increase?
As of 4/5/13, my FICO TU is 667 (yikes!!). I hope this increases when the CA is deleted.
Lesson: Teach yourself not to depend on SW. That way hopes do not rise, nor does disappointment occur.
Bump
There could be many reasons why your score didn't go up or down.
What else is on your reports?
When I was in that score range I was getting 2 and 5 point bumps for things, even lost a point once. When my last terrible awful was removed I got a 48 point bump.
