Took me ages to get mine back too - I had flights cancelled on eve of Covid, filed the refund quickly and had to deal with so much trickery from RyanAir. They’d claim I hadn’t submitted it and used some devious practices to encourage me to take a flight voucher instead. The whole process took something like 6 months iirc, every interaction with them I had they were deliberately confusing and evasive.

My cancelled 2020 flights I claimed through my travel insurance. I assume my insurance then asked for the money from the airline but that wasn't my problem at that point.

This is standard practice for RyanAir. It makes me wonder how they carry out other essential parts of their business, and has led me to refuse to fly on them for well over a decade now.

Making refunds hard is an essential part of their business.
