When your credit profile changes because of events you are calculated against different scorecards. If you have a baddie and it drops off, you move to a different scoring criteria for profiles without baddies. That's a simple as I can put it. There are threads here explaining rebucketing in more detail.

I'm moving this from Credit Cards to Understanding FICO Scoring. I agree that you've most likely been rebucketed. You should be able to receive additional comments from UFS forum participants that may prove helpful to you.
