Liquidation
In 1920 the Post Office wanted to lay telephone lines under the streets between Kingsway subway and Gray's Inn Road; Holborn Borough Council refused permission, but suggested they use the old Pneumatic Despatch Company tunnels. The tunnels proved structurally sound, but soon after work began the Pneumatic Despatch Company asked for compensation for the use of the tunnels. In 1921 the Post Office paid £7,500 to buy the tunnels. Some of the parts of the tunnels were not included in the sale, as these were where they had been breached by other buildings and utilities. The transaction was confirmed by the Post Office Tube Acquisition Act, 1922.

With the disposal of the final assets of the company, it was dissolved on 5 February 1924.
