How long does a Ryanair payment stay pending?

So I am violating one of my own rules and decided to fly with Ryanair for the first time. Apparently they are just as reluctant as I am:
Your payment is pending - Ref: XXXXXX
Don't worry, this is most likely because your payment is in a queue. To see the status of your payment you can refresh the page, or retrieve your booking with your reference number. Your booking will be confirmed when you receive an itinerary email.
Uh it's been like that for several hours. What now? When is this going to resolve? Google has nothing. Ryanair, obviously, even less.
