So are you saying it's not actually paid off yet and is still open? I paid off a personal loan last week and according to MyFico, my Equifax score dropped 5 points and Experian 1 point due to closing it. This was a pretty old account too. So I would guess you only lost a few points, if any, by having the account showing as closed.

Before filing any type of dispute, check with your mortgage lender. If your current score or potential score increase isn't passing any break points, then I wouldn't be worried about it.
Example- if you are worried about 780 vs 760 vs 740...anything above 740 usually gets you best rate anyway.
