How can I get out of sending self assessment?

I used to have a BTL and did my self assessment. I sold this two years ago and have no additional income but every year HMRC send me a letter making me do a self assessment. 
Every year I declare I earn below income tax but yet I keep being made to do it.

How can I get them to stop making me do this for no reason?

You can ask HMRC to withdraw the notice to file a return.

Oooo ok, do I call them for this or can I do it online?

Did it and sorted! Why didn't I know about opting out earlier 🤣 thank you

check your personal tax account / gateway messages just to make sure the HMRC don't ask for it on a left hand right hand basis
