I'm sorry I don't know what that is could you explain?

Do you have few credit accounts?
roaringstar44 OP t1_j6pc6o6 wrote
I have my main card, I'm also on my husband's card, and I have a medical credit card for emergencies (nothing on there) plus student loans

Pull your credit report to see how many inquiries are in there. May have been unrelated if it’s only one.

Thank you. I actually signed up for Experian (since annual credit report gave me an error) and the website says my credit is actually higher than what my bank is saying. So that's nice to know. I feel a little bit better but also very confused on what's going on.

Pull your actual report. Should be a way to do that on Experian

Yup I was able to. Looks a lot better than what my bank says. My bank says I have a late payment/debt but the credit report says it was paid on time.

You may want to check your other reports as well. Information can differ sometimes

If your credit history is very light (only one card and only used it once, for example) then a credit-impacting action might have more weight to it
