No credit card required

So, thinking of transferring the remainder of my BofA Visa (~$550) to my BCP which I activated today. Are they picky about doing that so soon? Or about BT in general? Have heard some weird things since browsing credit forums, but I'm thinking they offer the 0% BT for a reason.
Also prominently displayed when I set up my BCP online was this perk:

You always have to consider the source. People mistakenly assume causality and draw broad, sweeping conclusions all the time and many forum users seem especially jumpy about AmEx for some reason. It's not just about whether one does a BT or not. It's whether or not the specific situation (including other factors than just the BT itself) presents itself as a risk and not all BT's are identical. Assuming you have no balance on your BCP $550/$10,000 is nothing whereas someone transferring $2,700/$3,000 and just paying the minimum over long period of time with possibly other risky factors (balances on other cards, etc) would be perceived differently. Just keep utilization and the usual factors in mind just as with any creditor.
