I think I have figured this issue out.

Was eligible for a new CCT trial and have been waiting for an erroneous late to be corrected.
I know I wasn't late on anything recently and still combed through my accounts one by one. There is no late payment.
Seems like it's just some data caching. Give it a few days to correct.
Ah. That makes sense. I knew I shouldn't have pulled the trigger yet on a new CCT report. It just ended up stressing me out!
So I've updated CCT and pulled another FICO 08 from another site and it still shows incorectly.
And my Barclay's card just updated my score to the same 630 I'm seeing across the other two sources. And has "recent late payment".
I'm freaking out.
My CCT shows 8 late account but I can only find 4. Not sure what is up with them.
Are you sure you don't have high utility or collection accounts, too? Something definitely seems off. My lates are more recent than yours and my score is significantly higher.
I think the "recent late" thing is there no matter what. Mine is near 2 years and it also says it was recent. I think recent must mean the last several years.
Mine also has this:
Forgive my frustration. I am watching my reports like a hawk.
That indicator was NOT there on 2/15 when my TU was 697. Now it's 630.
I have 4% utilization. I have $50,000+ plus in credit. It doesn't say a general negative, it specifically says "missed payment'. I have not had any collections on TU for over a year.
It is not that it says "recent" it is that it says time since late 0 months when time since late is actually 2 years and 8 months.
well, 4 years is a short credit history. It looks at the average age of accounts.
I don't have 'short history' as a factor. My oldest account is 19 years old and AAoA is almost 7 years.

I'm not sure what this first sentence means?? Your TU shows as 674. Mine was 697 before someone did something funky and now it has dropped to 630. Without this mysterious late payment, my TU is 3 points from 700. What do you mean significantly higher?
