Banks reporting to CRA's

Despite paying mortgage and arrears as arranged for seven years on time bank reported it as 'late' to CRA's and badly affected credit score. Took a mortgage holiday due to COVID and bank reported account as 'in arrangement' and credit score dramatically increased.
Pay mortgage and agreed arrears on time and credit score dives. Dont pay mortgage for 6 months and credit score resembles an SpaceX rocket. All concerns how bank reports to Credit Reference Agencies...seems very unfair and bank seems immovable and lacks comprehension of how difficult it has made the last 8 years blaming CRA's rather than their reporting.

Is the banks reporting a factual record of what happened?
Forget any caveats or ifs and buts or maybes, has the bank correctly reported your credit information?0 -
The flags are for the benefit of other lenders and users of your data. Ignore the score given by the CRA. As has no bearing on how you will be assessed when applying for further credit.0
