I am sorry to tell you, but you have almost certainly been scammed. Asking money to release money is a very common scamming technique.

I thought as much when they said that they had not received the funds and that iq barcode had timed out. I had reviewed the website before hand of the transaction and it seemed genuine but I'm guessing not. Any idea on how to claim it back?

If you have sent somebody untrustworthy money using Bitcoin, you don’t have recourse to claw it back unfortunately.
