Credits only ever go lost when the project deletes the database. So what probably happened here is that you used a different email address to sign up with. when adding multiple computers to the same project, always use the same email address. The email address is the unique identifier.

You'll have to take that up with the project, it's their apps that ran, their credits given to you.
