My credit score increased by 7 points. I'm little sad to see my score increase only 7 points. One charge off and a public record have been removed. I was hoping that my credit score would increase at least by 20-30 points. But it didn't. Any idea why?

See, there are lots of things
See, there are lots of things that influence your credit score. Honestly speaking, you should be happy that your credit score increased by 7 points. Some see no movement at all. Moreover, your credit report will look better because 2 derogatory items have been removed from your credit report.
My credit score increased by only 1 point after a charge-off was removed from my credit report. What will you say to that?
