That is a nasty pickle. You don’t have the sort of time I had to complain. If I was you I would risk it and show up at the airport, unless the travel is essential. If you want to be sure you will just have to call them, you could demand a refund on the phone bill. Give that a try. Certainly there is a rip off either way. I will just avoid Ryanair completely from now on.

My commiserations. I see a lot of people searching for this trhough Google so the problem seems extensive as well as random. I have tried through my credit card company and failed as Ryanair produced some kind of proof of purchase. The problem is this is all to late as I had to arrange other air tickets to secure I would actually be flying on those chosen dates.
I will also choose not to travel with them in the future.

I am a regular computer/Internet user so it is not user error, I double checked the details before confirming, so it is not that either.

I hope Ryan Air monitor messages about themselves because this is awful, and NO I AM NOT going to be ripped off paying a £1 a minute for an error that is clearly their fault. Useless, absolutely useless, cheap is no excuse for something like this. No frills does not mean something as bad as this surely, makes you wonder how their planes stay in the air if they can’t manage a simple website!

If you hadn’t guessed already I’m FURIOUSLY FRUSTRATED!

Ryan Air for god sake get your act together. If you need a decent website I know a great company with a bunch of talented designers and programmers. Invest, as this looks like it a repetitive problem and had I known before I would not have bothered with you!
