BT TV Contact expired

My contract with BT has recently expired i.e. broadband; landline; mobile and TV.
I called yesterday to say that I wanted to renew everything but TV. To be honest I have hardly used BT TV over the last 2 years and I am paying £15 per month. I have watched a few football matches in all that time.
BT offered me a few options other than cancellation:
1) Pay £5 PCM for the basic package. After pushing them I found out that this means I get freeview with nothing else (I already have freeview on my tv). I was then offered six months amazon prime free on top of this and the ability to add/remove additional extras e.g. sport on a month by month basis.
2) Pay £10 PCM and get certain Sky entertainment channels on top of the basic package (Freeview). Plus the ability to add/remove additional extras e.g. sport on a month by month basis.
I would be interested to hear what others have done in my situation.

Really it depends upon what you want .Hardly used BT TV then just take the basic BB package .0

Check because BT TV will hook you into a 24 month contract, so you would have to keep paying at least £10 a month for two years.
If you have a BT box, stick with Freeview if you don't watch much on the pay channels."There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry. We shall never see their like again". O S Nock1
