I did some quick math. $2500.00 @ 14.99 would be about $30.00 interest/month (give or take). The new interest would be about $12.00/month (again a rough estimate and if the balance remains consistent @ $2500.00).
So your savings would be about $20.00/month. With a $199.00 transfer fee, it'll be about 10 months before you start seeing any benefit from transferring. If you plan to have the $2500.00 paid down by that time, then it's not really worth it.
There are online calculators that let you put in payments and APRs that would be a lot more exact that I was in my estimate.
