Published: 12/15/2025

Amazon apologizes for mistakenly streaming a 15-rated film to a child who rented a PG movie on its Prime Video service. The parent paid for Diary of a Wimpy Kid but received Love & Other Drugs, leading to a complaint to Ofcom. The error occurred due to both films having the same code instead of unique ones. Amazon has rectified the issue and acknowledged the mistake.
