Post subject: transferring one citicard to another??

For a long time, I’ve gotten these balance transfer checks in the mail from both citibank driver’s edge and at&t universal. Looked good, 3.9%, no fee, and I had a lot to transfer from the at&t to the citicard. One of the terms said “cannot be used to pay another citicard or affiliate” at&t used to be by some other bank, but now it’s website says “citicards” at the bottom. But, on www.citicards.com, it doesn’t make any mention, so I wasn’t sure how affiliated it was or not, i.e. was this an eligible transaction. So, I went ahead and sent in the transfer check. Almost instantly, the amount was credited to my at&t account, with “nevada payment.” 5 days later, the balance still hasn’t shown up on my citicard account, and I haven’t heard anything from them. Any of you ever do this? What was your experience?
