There far too many ill informed forum members who publish comments which are frankly garbage and lead to unnecessary worry and potential panic for other members.

Thank you for your response, an interesting reply.... My post was to let people know that they are not, unfortunately, entitled to the EU261 compensation and I included official websites that validated that fact. My own experience and that of others has validated that the refund system employed by Ryanair doesn't seem to be working at the moment.
With regard to the refunds: You are obviously the chosen one... Have you received your refund? I've receive an acknowledgement and a promise that my EC261 compensation claim will be looked into. I also eventually managed to send an email requesting that Ryanair refund my for my cancelled flights. Knowing the Ryanair business model I'm not holding my breath. However, I'm a bit of an awkward git with lots of time, I can feel a project on the horizon!
