In April this year I had a return flight Malta to Liverpool cancelled by Ryanair , I elected for a refund , I think twice , however eventually I was wore down and opted for a voucher . I subsequently booked the same flight for Christmas holidays using the voucher and made up the balance with a card payment , the return flight date was put back from 31st December to 1st January and Ryanair  offered me a refund or voucher , I opted for the refund again which this time  was returned to the card I had paid with but only the card payment ,  it seems the voucher used had been written off and would not be refunded . I had no inkling this would happen and wonder if anybody else has experienced this .

    Are you sure they haven't refunded the voucher part as a voucher, or as travel credit? Have you checked on your Ryanair account?

    I would think the same as well.

    When you say “it seems the voucher used had been written off and would not be refunded” have you actually asked RyanAir?
  • Thanks for the responses , there is no credit in my Ryanair account and the email I received acknowledges the refund request , it will be refunded onto card used etc and at the bottom it states the vouvher used has now been voided and cannot be used .
  • Emailed Ryanair about this and I hope to get a reply within 10 days
