How do I pay into my Debit Card with my Credit Card?

I need to pay into my Nationwide Visa Debit card/account, using My Barclaycard visa credit card
What are the options?

I also have a Thai Debit Mastercard.(if that helps)
I am staying in Thailand for a while and do not know of any Barclays/Nationwide ATMs or offices here, although it is a major city

Barclaycard sometimes offer transfer to bank, no often though other way is paypal

I'll try that. Is it a problem that I use the nationwide A/C to pay the credit card by direct debit?
I also wish to pay into Paypal via linked debit card, or credit card, but this credit card was just refused on Paypal.
If I have to link it, it will take too long to verify it even if it is possible, afaik

It's not a great solution, but you could always withdraw cash from the credit card and then pay it into the debit account. As most credit cards charge a lot more interest for cash withdrawals, I'd advise against doing this unless you absolutely have to.

You missed that the OP is abroad.

I think it's worth starting with ringing Barcaycard and asking them about a money transfer to a current account (will cost the same as an ATM withdrawal).

yes that's the problem really, I cant walk in with cash.
I was hoping(expecting) the info would be on Barclay's site, but I don't see it

I dont know why the card was refused on paypal, does it need to be linked?
cos maybe its a barclays thing or a paypal form thing for billing address

All I know is you can do that with Paypal but the process is kinda tricky.

Check Western Union. This won't be cheap, but you can pay by a CC and they say: "In certain countries, money can be deposited in a bank account".

Why do you need to do it? (There just may be a cheaper way to get to the same end!)

good question. the base point is that paying into a current account using a credit card is not normal practice.

I have to pay off the credit card, and make a paypal payment
