[Luke35]

Does anyone know why the number of free hot drinks have gone down as come to the afternoon the free hot drinks at Greggs have been gone?

@Luke35 

Greggs choice as to how many they offer.

Be quick - first come, first served.

Oh ok it's just you use to be able to be able to get a free drink from O2 priority at Greggs in the afternoon but now days I go to Greggs in the afternoon and find out that the free hot drinks at Greggs from priority to find out that it's saying that they have ran out.

The O2 Priority app says that there are 10,000 codes released on each of Monday to Saturday and 7,000 on a Sunday. I believe that has always been the case.

One reason that they might be running out earlier in the day is because of the increasing popularity of O2 Priority, as well as the fact that O2 acquired several million additional subscribers from VM. 

The earliest that I have ever missed out on a free hot drink is at 9.45am. They usually seem to be available until about 10.30am. 👍

Greggs now offer free drinks via Octopus Energy and Monzo, and those ones are guaranteed  as one drink per week (or with Monzo a  Hot Drink, Muffin / Doughnut or Sausage Roll)  

I can see the o2 offer disappearing as Greggs make more money out of other partnerships, than through VMo2... and will be looking at moving the offer around...

That's probably correct as all of the usual suspects seem to rotate their offers. Caffe Nero was on O2 Priority alongside Greggs food, Caffe Nero was withdrawn and replaced by Greggs drinks.

Meanwhile, about three months later, Caffe Nero turned up on Three+. 

I suppose that it is normal commercial practice to run a promotion for a period and then to end it or to run a slightly different promotion somewhere else. 👍

the greggs vegan sausage roll on o2 priority has been running since April 2021

that offer can be used for cheese and onion bake, i have read the offer t and c's 

don't really care if they remove the greggs hot drink offer and keep the greggs vegan sausage roll offer 

[Oxonian]

No real point in speculating @bhaskarsamani ; at least it will be a nice surprise as and when it changes ! 👍
