Customers can no longer buy the vegan pizzas which launched across sites in the UK in 2020.
Unhappy diners jumped online to share their disappointment, with one calling the axe a massive "shame".
Another called the move "really disappointing" and said they only discovered the vegan items had been ditched when trying to order online in the last few weeks.
Domino's has since confirmed the vegan options have been pulled from menus while the firm "refines" and "updates" its offering.
A spokesperson said: 'At Domino's, we're always tuning into what our customers want and updating our menu accordingly.
"As part of this ongoing process, we're refining our plant-based pizza selection to spotlight the fan favourites that keep our customers coming back.
"We remain committed to offering a tasty range of vegan options that caters to all tastes and preferences, making sure our customers always have plenty of delicious choices to enjoy.'
This comes just days after the pizza firm cut the much-loved Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza from its menu.
The menu option combined spiced pulled chicken, juicy tomatoes, crunchy onions, spicy jalapenos and green and red peppers, topped with a spiced mayo drizzle.
A spokesperson said: "The incredibly popular Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza has been removed from the national Domino's menu.
Domino's axes pizza favourite and time running out for cost of living payments
"Despite its popularity, we're always looking to make room for more deliciousness.
"In this case, it's to welcome the return of our Double Choc Caramel Cookies as well as another exciting product we'll be revealing next week."
News the pizza had been dropped from menus left many distraught.
One asked: "Hi, have you discontinued The Ultimate Chicken Mexicana pizza?
"Was my favourite and hope it comes back."
Another rsaid: "That new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana looks banging."
Meanwhile another commented: "The new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana is quite good tbf."

Like buying money – The two odds-on ‘steering jobs' tipped to leave bookies in tears at Glorious Goodwood
The market suggests they can't get beat BANKERS Like buying money – The two odds-on 'steering jobs' tipped to leave bookies in tears at Glorious Goodwood Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ANTE-POST punting is a dangerous road littered with torn betslips and shattered dreams. But every now and then a seemingly golden opportunity presents itself. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Field Of Gold is getting shorter and shorter in the market - but will surely be the good thing of Goodwood and feature in every rolling multiple for the week Credit: PA Too good to be true? Maybe. But unless you take the plunge you'll never know. Punters who like to smash into favourites at very short prices will often talk about the notion of 'buying money'. It doesn't always work. Just this week we saw 2-13 Royal Ascot runner-up Thesecretadversary beaten by a 28-1 outsider. But you'd hope there would be fewer chances for things to go so seismically wrong in Group 1s. And that's where John Gosden's Field Of Gold and Aidan O'Brien's Illinois come in. Both are currently odds-on for their respective races at next week's Glorious Goodwood. Field Of Gold, who perhaps should have won the 2,000 Guineas, and definitely did win the Irish 2,000 Guineas and St James's Palace Stakes, is a best-price 1-2 to win the Sussex Stakes next Wednesday. His big market rival - and second-fav - Rosallion was a big drifter on the Betfair Exchange and could be sent elsewhere. Illinois was second to Trawlerman in last month's Ascot Gold Cup. But he is a proven Group-level performer - albeit he has always come up short in Group 1s - and last finished outside the top two in April 2024 - NINE races ago. He is a best-price 8-11 to win the 2m feature next Tuesday. There is a chance O'Brien could run recent brilliant Newmarket scorer Scandinavia instead. But this looks a golden opportunity for Illinois to get his Group 1, with 4-1 second-fav French Master moving up from handicaps. Backing shorties in a double like this wouldn't be my go-to method of punting. But if you put the pair together now you'd still get better than evens, with a £20 punt returning £48.44 with Ladbrokes.

New energy tariffs could automatically save you £200 a year WITHOUT having to cut back on electricity
BILL BOOST New energy tariffs could automatically save you £200 a year WITHOUT having to cut back on electricity Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HOUSEHOLDS could save £200 a year without having to cut back on electricity through new tariffs. Bill payers could cut costs by signing up for time-of-use tariffs charging different rates based on wholesale demand. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Households could save £200 a year on their energy bills under a new government roadmap Credit: Alamy The warning comes as the government today lays out plans for more families to sign up for flexible energy tariffs as part of its new Clean Flexibility Roadmap. The roadmap will demand suppliers make information on smart tariffs for households easier to find. Households will also be encouraged to sign up for tailored products and services which can flag when cheaper energy is available. Meanwhile, electric vehicle drivers will be eligible for discounts on their electricity at off-peak times. Michael Shanks, energy minister, said: 'This roadmap gives households and businesses the choice and control over when and how they use their energy. 'The flexible electricity system we are working to build will help make that a reality for consumers across the country, by supporting them to bring down their bills through using new tariffs and technologies. 'In this way we will protect working people's pockets and ensure they are the first to benefit from our clean power mission.' The government says pushing more households towards using electricity at off-peak times will help save the electricity network £70billion by 2050. Rocio Concha, Which? director of policy and advocacy, said: "Smart tariffs could help make household energy bills more affordable and reduce the cost of developing the UK's energy infrastructure but their success is dependent on consumer support and engagement. "To give consumers the confidence to take up these tariffs, the government must ensure that energy customers are given the information they need so they can easily compare tariffs, find out how much they could save and choose the best option for them." Akshay Kaul, from Ofgem, added: "A more flexible energy market will be a real game changer, giving households more control over what they pay for their energy. 'Small lifestyle tweaks such as programming a dishwasher or tumble dryer to run overnight when costs are low or charging your electric car during high winds can have a material impact on people's bills." What firms already offer cheaper energy based on demand? Some firms already offer customers cheaper energy at off-peak times of the day when wholesale costs are lower. Some offer periods where you can get discounts for shifting your usage away from peak times when there is greater demand on the network. For example, EDF has been offering households free electricity for shifting their usage outside of 4pm to 7pm on weekdays. Others offer tariffs where the rate you are charged is tied to the cost of wholesale prices and updated daily. When wholesale prices are higher, your bills rise and when they're lower, you pay less. If you can shift your usage outside of busier periods, you can save even more money.

16 ways to boost your credit score before you apply for a mortgage including BNPL mistake and how to add rent history
How the bank accounts you open, your rent history and BNPL payments could impact your score TOP SCORE 16 ways to boost your credit score before you apply for a mortgage including BNPL mistake and how to add rent history Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE key to buying your first home is a healthy credit score, so giving yours an MOT is the first step towards home ownership. We spoke to Experian's expert John Webb about the 16 steps YOU can take to boost your credit history. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The Sun spoke to Experian's John Webb, who is an expert in credit history Credit: Linkedin If your credit score is poor, you might not be able to borrow enough to get the home you want - or you could be landed with higher monthly mortgage payments. There are three main credit reference agencies in the UK which collect information about you from public records, lenders and other service providers. When you apply for credit - such as taking out a mortgage or a credit card - lenders will want to check your record to make sure you're reliable. A "good" score is generally considered to be anywhere between 881 and 960, while a "fair" or average score will be between 721 and 880. If your credit score isn't high enough, or you just want to bump it up a little to get better rates, it is possible to build it up over time. Here are John's tips on boosting your score - including the Buy Now, Pay Later mistake you might be making and how to add your renting history. Martin Lewis explains why credit score 'isn't real' and shares 'the holy trinity' of measures lenders use to assess you Take your time It takes time to build up your credit score, so you need to start planning in advance. John recommends giving yourself just over a year to boost your score. This will allow time for any new accounts you open to mature and to start positively impacting your score. Check all three scores You'll have different scores from each of the three major credit reference agencies. These are Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. To get the best idea of where your score is at, you should check all three - it's free to do. There is a service called CheckMyFile that allows you to check them all in one place. You can sign up for a free 30-day trial. Remember to cancel or you will be charged £14.99 a month. Easy bank account mistakes to avoid You may not realise it but opening new bank or credit accounts can lower your credit score temporarily. That's because you will go through a credit check whenever you apply for a new account - and this impacts your score for a short while. Each new account application and opening can lower your score for up to 12 months. After about six months, the new account will start to have less of an impact on your credit score - as long as you're regularly making payments on time. Once the account is about a year old, it will start to have a positive impact on your credit score. So it's not necessarily a bad thing to open a new account - but you should try to avoid it in the year before taking out a mortgage. For the same reason, you shouldn't open too many bank or credit accounts around the same time. This is because although it's only a temporary dip, opening lots of accounts at once won't give your score time to recover. Being a loyal banker can pay If you've had at least one or two of your bank accounts open for a long time, that will look good to lenders. That's because it shows a consistent payment history over many years. Credit score companies calculate the average age of your bank accounts, and the older that is the better. Ideally you should aim for an average account age of five years or more. Why Buy Now, Pay Later purchases could set you back Buy Now, Pay Later schemes don't yet factor into credit scores. But John says you should try to avoid using them if possible - especially close to your mortgage application. That's because every time you do a new BNPL transaction it shows up on your credit report as a new account. And as we mentioned, you want to limit opening too many new accounts. John says: "If it's entirely affordable to use Buy Now, Pay Later and you don't have any issues making the repayments and so on then that's all right. "But I would tend to be a little bit more cautious, so probably the three months-plus before you apply for a mortgage you should probably avoid it if you can because you don't want those new accounts jumping onto your credit report." Log your council tax and Netflix bills You can add extra information about payments you make regularly through Experian's Boost feature. These can include council tax payments, savings accounts and subscriptions like Netflix and Spotify. You can boost your score by a huge 101 points if you do this. Be aware though that not all lenders will factor this in. Get a credit card - and keep using it Having a credit card and paying it off regularly and on time can help to boost your score. However you should make sure you keep using it. Not using it for a long time could mean it gets marked as "dormant" or the account is closed. "Good practice is to keep it active with very small essential spending, something you would have spent on anyway, and paying off in full every month just so you keep the card active," John says. Of course, if you miss a credit card payment that will have a negative impact on your score so you should only borrow what you can afford. Have a high credit limit... When you take out a credit card, you'll have a limit on how much you can borrow. The higher your limit is, the better it is for your credit score. John says that having a limit of £3,500 or above is good for your score. However this may vary across credit reference agencies. ...but keep your credit card balance low You might want to have a high credit limit - but you shouldn't be maxing it out. John says you can get a "significant" score boost if you have a high limit but you keep your credit card balance below 25% of that threshold. If you're using Experian, doing this could add a huge 90 points to your score. Plus, if your balance is £50 or less you can get another 30 points. Think about timing It's worth noting that credit reports aren't updated in real-time - so it can take a while for things to show up. If you're planning to apply for a mortgage, you might want to make sure any debts or balances you've paid off are showing up on your credit file. For example, you don't want it to say you owe £900 at the point that you apply for a mortgage. Ideally you want to pay off the balance before your credit statement is produced. Add your renting history Not everyone is aware that you can add your renting history to your credit report voluntarily. If you're a private tenant and pay your rent on time, this can help improve your score. You can add the information to your credit report using services like Credit Ladder or Canopy. Reduce your debt If possible, prioritise paying off any debt you have. This can dramatically improve your credit score and potentially mean you get better interest rates on your mortgage. You might also be able to borrow more. The EASIEST way to boost your score This is perhaps the simplest one to do and will give your score a decent boost. Just make sure you're registered on the electoral roll at your current address. Lenders like this because when you register to vote, your electoral details are recorded on your report and this helps them confirm your name and address. Plus, this can save you time on your credit applications because if lenders can't confirm your details through the electoral roll they may ask for other forms of identity and proof of address. Use eligibility checkers Before you go ahead with applying for a mortgage or other credit, you can use eligibility checkers offered by lenders. These can give you an idea of how likely it is you'll be accepted and the terms you might receive. But, crucially, they're "soft searches" so that means they won't affect your credit score. Meanwhile if you apply for a mortgage and get rejected then it will show up on your credit report. Don't let a mistake scupper your chances It's worth going through your credit report carefully to make sure everything is correct. You might spot an inaccuracy - for example, a missed payment that shouldn't be there. If that's the case, you should contact the credit reference agency to dispute it. The agency can then query it with the lender on your behalf. Add notes to your credit score to give you power If there's a negative mark on your credit report, you can explain what happened if it's for a genuine reason. Credit reference agencies will let you add a "notice of correction" of up to 200 words on each mark. You can do this if you missed a payment for reasons like redundancy, illness, bereavement, mental health issues or a gambling addiction. Having a notice of correction means a human will review your application, rather than you getting an automated refusal. However lenders can still refuse you in this case and it can delay the application process.
