    It couldn't hurt to ask Barclays if you haven't yet, but normally banks don't consider chargebacks on debit cards. There is one bank that does... but I don't remember which it is.

    Barclays are supposed to be the best vis a vis debit cards so you might be in luck. Unless of course they have been stung that many times by PayPal fraud.

    When I first started a PayPal acccount I registered a debit card but a friend said that was not a good idea and to use a credit card.

    So I added a credit card and deleted the debit card soon after.

    With a credit card you get fraud protection well at least better than a debit card.
