@eevee: I have thoughts on your comment on them not wanting to meet so many people. I follow Dodie on twitter and she often tweets about spontaneously meeting people and how she loves it and how she's trying to meet even more etc and the difference to deppy is staggering, so i understand how D+P's approach can seem antisocial and ungrateful to people.
On the other hand different people are different
and not everyone likes making awkward smalltalk with overexcited tweens/teens. If i was in their position, meeting more than a few people on an outing that was suposed to be fun and relaxing would really ruin my day.
Also, when i see pictures or videos of Dodie's meet ups, i shudder, because it always looks very chaotic/unsafe and often somehow like a fire hazard. Like at playlist where she and all the meet up people were looking for a place to do a small concert and ended up blocking a staircase. If i was her i would panic in that situation (I only use her as an example btw, i'm sure there are others who operate similarly.) and the phandom is much more hysterical than Dodie's fans.
And i truly believe that the amount of people that would show up if they made very clear where they are would be quite big. I always remember the crowds that show up when youtubers announce that they are gonna be at the airport at a certain time, it's crazy. And then there's Alfie, doesn't he sometimes tweet his location and ends up getting swarmed?
I don't know, i just very much understand why they try to avoid fans "in the wild".
Regarding the free tickets, i agree with phamnotof, it's not reasonable to expect fairness in business. It's a simple matter of supply and demand. If i buy stocks at market entry and then the price drops because the demand is lower than expected, i won't get a refund either.
I understand why people who paid full price for their tickets would be bitter though

"latte" in german means boner, so i just giggled like a twelve year old.
(speaking as a total basic bitch who loves starbucks and lives in leggings)
Both Dan and Phil follow her on Twitter. I've never heard the name, but she seems to be someone in the community who works with Ingrid Nilsen (and maybe other YouTubers) as some kind of management, judging from her LinkedIn.
