Construction - Perm Loan: SCORES dropped

We are looking to build our home.  LO did a pull and said we needed to get to 680 to get  the construction loan.  At the time, we were 660, 669,630.  LO suggested we get a VISA.  We did and MyFICO showed the scores soared!!  Switched banks and our Comenity/Ann Taylor Card payment had a returned payment.  As soon as I found out, I headed to the store to pay.  The damage was done.....5 year old account.....this is the 2nd time late!  One GW late already removed 5/14 (Lexington Law)...and I have called several times....representative was nasty and will not remove!!  LO just pulled again today and we are now husband EQ 606,EX 633, Trans 630 and I am EQ 584, EX 634, TRANS 666....We have sat down with  the builder several times and have made awesome plans!!  Should we do another GW letter? Please someone PLEASE HELP!! We need a 680 really fast...thanks for any direction you can provide!!!

Thank you so much!  I have sent Comenity a certified letter with a detailed explanation.  We will see how it goes.  If they were to delete the 30-day late, I wonder would our score recover to its original version??

Over a few months as long as there are no other derogs you should recover the lost points.
