confused about balance transfers

I have £5500 on a NatWest card and £3000 on a barclaycard. Does it make sense to do a B/T from NatWest to Barclaycard 0% for 14 months? Also regarding my minimum payment for the B/T, will it ALL go off the balance and how do I find out what that would be?

    Probably what fee is the balance transfer charged at?

    Waht limits are on the card as this needs to be sufficient normally only up to 90% of limit or so.

    Minimum payment will go off the balance but you should have a better plan for clearing it as there is no guarantee you will be able to roll it over next time. Though presumably the fee will be added which will mea. Your balance will initially go up.
