Credit Card: Stupid Newbie Question

I promise I'm not being intentionally lazy, as I've been looking around on the forum, but have become confused.

I currently have a card on which I have a £1400 balance. The rate is a stupid 20.95% per annum (0.052% per day). The interest this month is approx £21.29. I am a bit ashamed by this.

I've done pretty well as I've paid off two other cards, but took my eye off the ball big time on this one.

I really want to clear this one as quickly as I can as I now have a phobia to credit cards.

So is this the obvious case of the Barclaycard Platinum card? Or am I missing something?
