The fine print says "Credit card will be applied to your Sony Card account 8-12 weeks after your first purchase." What does that mean? Do i have to purchase something and THEN wait 12 weeks to get the 100 credit? It also says "Account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment" Does that mean I cannot cancel this card until at least 12 weeks have past? When you click the "apply now" button there is a note on the bottom of the page that says "Transaction fee for balance transfers: 3% of the amount of each transaction, but not less than $5.00 nor more than $75.00." Can someone explain this balance transfer fee to me? sounds kind of shady..
