Mbna, advice needed regarding Balance & money transfer

I originally got the mbna credit card in 2018 for a balance transfer of £2500 on a promotion  offer to end in 2021. In 2019 I did a M/T for £1000 to end February  2020 & a second B/T for £1500 to end may 2020. I didn't realise that my monthly payments were still going towards my original B/T ending in 2021 and not the balance of the M/T promotion offer that would be ending first in the  February and then the B/T ending in may. I have a tesco credit card and they allocate your payments to the offer that ends first. Now because  i have an outstanding balance on the M/T I'm now paying interest but it does look like my payments are now being allocated to reduce the February M/T. What a mess !  Really I should try to move this debt on to another card doing a balance transfer but if i do what will i be paying of ?
