Assumes you pay the balance down evenly across the 12-month promotional window, so the average outstanding balance is about half the transfer. Rates revert to 13.75% afterwards.

Cost to carry a balance
Interest for a year at 13.75%$412.50
Annual / periodic fees$0
Total yearly cost$412.50

Simple interest on a constant balance — a plain-language upper bound rather than an amortisation schedule. Paying in full each month within the stated-day grace period avoids the interest entirely.
