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).
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?
Anyone know where I can find the reward point catalogue?

Clocks said: 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.

Also for those who signed up their DW'S or DH's did you use the same e-mail?

Additional purchases with this account CAN NOT be made until your card is received in the mail.

Just signed up and got approval. Thanks! There is a $75 BT fee, so I figure I'll just tap into the 0% for purchases deal on this card.
