Did you begin your career in August 1939? If so, you may have sunk neutral vessels instead of enemy ones. The war will not start until Germany invades Poland on Sept 1, and Germany will not be at war with England until two days later on Sept 3. If you sank British ships prior to Sept 3 1939 they would not have been considered enemy vessels, but neutral ones. And unless you've edited the player renown settings in your game, you will lose renown for sinking neutral ships.
If the sinkings occurred after Sept 3 1939 and you still lost renown, it's possible that you mistook some neutral or friendly nation's flag for the British ensign. Mistakes happen, just like in real life. GWX removes the color-coding for friendly/enemy/neutral and IDing ships by flag and outline alone can be very tricky!
