I seem to always get the 0% BT checks good for 12 months every other month for any of my 4 Barclay cards.  I don't think I've ever seen the 3.99% offer.  I don't use them so my shredder is happy to munch them away...albeit it's nice to get them.  For some folks, this comes in handy for alternative/temporary financing but as with any BTs, fees can be the killer.

Yeah, the fees are $10. or 4% of the amount of each transaction. Whichever is greater. Max $99.00.
