Confused-EXPERIAN & Fico 8

Yesterday I get an alert from Experian that my fico 8 went up by 31 points and today I logged on fico went down by 31 points. 

I am so freaking confused as to how I go from a 31 point increase and the next day 31 point decrease without anything changing from my credit report.

Any idea why??

Bug in the CMS is my guess

So which one you think is the correct one? The increase or decrease? I really needed that 31 point increase.

You would have to compare the reports from the 2 days with different scores and see what's different.  The experian.com alerts usually relate to the data from the day before so disregard the alert itself.

I did compare the 2 reports...the data on both report are exactly the same. Like I said yesterday my fico jumped 31 points to 701 and today Fico decreased back to 669 which makes no sense because bith repeats are exactly the same.

Could've just been a glitch then, unfortunately.
