Balance transfer CSP bonus Question

I have asked this question before but need reassurance. I have hit the 3k mark and then some for my bonus my CSP. I want to transfer 2k to my new usaa card that has 0%apr on BT till nov 2014. Does a balance transfer matter for the bonus? Anyone with experience on this?

I have never done a BT before but I didn't think it was in the form of a bt check? is that every bank or what?

Most banks have bt checks. Normally 1-3 is included in the 1st mail U get along with your new card.

Or you can call your bank and ask for bt checks

It shouldn't but it takes awhile for bonus to post they tell you 1-2 cycles. I used bt on my capital one still got my rewards. I don't know why csp would be any different.
Cards: CSP $5k, Capital One Cash Rewards VS $3100, Discover it $3k Capital One MasterCard $600, Orchard Bank $3k, Barclays Rewards MC $1250 Gapcard $900, BR $300, Neiman Marcus $1k, Macys $1200 Walmart $500
