Saw this when shopping on the SonyStyle site.

Offer expires December 29, 2006
$150 statement credit after first purchase, must be made by June 30, 2007.
I got my card number and info immediately, so can use the same day.

Added bonus, 10 points/dollar spent at SonyStyle.com through January 4th, regular rate is 5 points/dollar.
In addition, 0% on purchases and balance transfers for the first 12 months, but a bt fee DOES apply (3% - min $5, max $75).

ALL, please have a print-out of this offer untill u get the $150 credit.

I made my purchase a week ago and called customer service. They confirmed that the credit would appear within 1-2 billing cycles.

BUT they say, its only $100. I told them that the offer is for $150, so they asked me to save the copy which I would need to fax later if only $100 shows up instead of $150.

Several weeks since you applied still no response?
I know several people mentioned this issue in the thread. I finally figured out why it was such a long delay. I was able to call the actual Chase/Sony lending department at 888-270-2127. My application was not processed because they were unable to verify my current address of 2.5 years. I was able to talk to a person at that number and verified a few things. She instantly approved the card for 7K and said it will arrived in ~5 days. Give that a shot if it has been several weeks and nothing has happened. -Snyder81

BT fee can be waived per other thread on Chase Cancel BT Fees.

Here is another link for the pdf file. I hope

i'm a n00b here. so if i sign up for this card, i can put $150 in gas on it the first month and when i get my statement there will be a -150 credit, so my statement balance will be $0?

Down in the fine print, under item 1, it states that "credit will be applied to your SonyCard account 8-12 weeks after your first purchase." So, Squeezer99, you probably won't see the credit before your statement prints. Since it mentions nothing about location or amount, I would use the rules from last years $100 offer, which were just to buy something, anywhere, for at least $1.00, then your credit will appear later.

There is another sony card thread that you can read....but, what I did during the 100 offer is pay 1 buck on my phone bill online and paid off the 1 buck....they credited the 100 near the end of the 8-12 weeks last time...

I still have a -$100 balance from my previous Sony rewards card. Does anyone know if they let you have more than 1 or do I need to convert/consolidate this card first?

Great find OP! Is this a Chase card. I did not get instant approval, and I think it is because I recently applied for another Chase card.

Yup, it's a Chase card. I had 6 Chase cards in the past, 5 of them were signups for various bonuses. I called and had all of the credit limits reallocated into one card (Cash Plus), and had the rest closed. Some may scoff that I even closed them at all, but it was easier for me. I'll combine this one and my United card into Cash Plus in a couple months, then sign up again. 2 free tickets from United and counting...

Anyone know if you have to keep this open for xx amount of time? I think only the United card has to be open for 6 months, otherwise they can retract the signup bonus.
