Credit score??

Hi everyone, brand new here! Sorry if I'm in the wrong thread.
I just checked my credit score on Experian and my score has dropped from 890 to 788 this month. I'm so confused, the only thing that has actually happened differently this month is I paid off my (only) credit card in full! I haven't missed any payments etc either or exceeded my limit.
Can anyone tell me what this means or why this might have happened?
Thanks

It's because the credit scores are made up. They will change randomly. That's why only you see them.
Ignore them completely.
The only thing that matters is the data on your file. Manage your credit responsibly and you will be fine.0
