OK, so I had this problem when my score was way low. I was pre approved for a discover card. They pull EQ... I was denied and the denial letter showed my EQ score was way lower than what CCT and even CK was showing. FF to today. My file is nearly clean. Last update with CCT on DEC 31 had my EQ at 745. Today I tried with Discover. Denied again. They said my score with EQ was 561!!!
Called EQ, rep said Discover uses their own scoring!
I checked CK and it said several accounts were removed from my (see below!)

Called EQ back they are playing dumb and keep saying I need to purchase their monitoring to see what's going on this is complete bull**bleep**!!
The only change thats happen in my EQ is I do have a credit consultant that's challenging a chargeoff. For some reason they added an old address to eq. Before I hired them EQ had my dob as 1921! I'm only 35 **bleep**! is going on I want to scream!!!
Anyone??

I'd start with purchasing a 3 bureau report here at myfico, and seeing what your real scores are. Discover does use their own vesion, it's never more th an 2=3 points off of my fico score here.
I'm going to interpret challenge as dispute.
Disputes do two unfortunate things:
Both of those can be problematic scoring wise, look at a before and after report, your FICO score change is likely tied into how that CO tradeline is being handled. We tell people not to engage in frivolous disputes, and FWIW I just got bitten on Transunion by a dispute so it's not simply FICO being FICO in this case.
