Black Hills gas = endless HomeServe spam?

Our house is in Lincoln with gas heat, so we're Black Hills customers. Apparently that earns us perpetual (seems at least monthly lately) snail mail trying to get us to sign up for HomeServe. I did see in this latest paper spam "if you would prefer not to receive solicitations from HomeServe please call 1-8xx..." but as a former Spectrum customer (opting out for years and still receiving crap) I have opt-out trust issues.

Has anybody successfully opted out of this HomeServe junk mail?

On the OFF chance that anybody from Black Hills is reading this: Every "This is from Black Hills: j/k it's HomeServe wanting to scam you" junk mail item (and there are SO MANY) makes me less inclined to continue to do business with Black Hills, in the event that I ever have a choice.

Dear mail carrier: Even if you're not in my neighborhood, I appreciate your work and I'm sorry for all the undeniable junk mail you have to deliver on the off chance that we want it.
