Ryan Air Charges for name changing

I need to change 1 name on my booking and Ryan Air want to charge me £70!!!
Can anyone advise me if there is a loophole around this?
I would book another flight but it would cost more!

I can't believe they can do that!!!

Please help!

    No, there is no loophole. It is to stop people bulkbuying tickets and then selling them on. Sorry x

    Is it a spelling/other minor error needing to be corrected, or a different person needing to go on the booking? If the former, may be worth mentioning if it's an honest mistake and see if there's any goodwill there - it's worked before judging by past threads - if you do try this, let us know :)

    That's true. They should do a name change (notified within a few days of booking) for £7.
