What upsets me though is that wont this drop my credit score since my Barclays account will read "closed by credit grantor"?
A "Closed by Credit Grantor" does not have any effect on your credit score.

I would call Barclays and explain your situation. Also, there might be another reason they closed the account that you don't know about.
