Incorrect reporting does it matter

USB today finally reported zero balance and closed cards x 2, however they reported both as paid loans and my score actually dropped a few points, is this worth the effort to dispute it be be reported correctly or does it make that much of a difference.  Just curious if anyone knows.

from your credit report from https://annualcreditreport.com/ or from credit karma or where are you seeing this? 

a screenshot of the tradeline directly from your credit report would probably make it easiest to see what's going on
