I just checked my credit score for the first time since moving into my first home with my fianc!. My score has dropped from 978 to 574 in a month! I expected a drop to an extent with setting up direct debits and having a mortgage but not for it to be cut in half nearly! Is this normal?
Thanks

Yes, it's normal. The score is made up and meaningless.
Lenders will only look at the data on your file, not the fictional scores.
Simply ignore it.0
