Have a word with Brighton Council PLEASE, I would love to have nothing on my PH other than the plate on the back,but we have numbers on the front doors,plate numbers on the rear doors and a bl**dy roof sign with tha company phone number on!!. And as you said, because of which we get flagged down all the time even thogh I do not have my roof sign lit at any time,
And also regarding the main subject ,we had those in Brighton many years ago,when I had a Hack,and they failed miserably!I am thankfull to say.

I think external adverts look naff, full stop.

I'd sooner see no external adverts on Londons Taxi fleet, although I accept it's never going to happen because a rental fleet of 200 taxis earning a grand a year each for adverts isn't going to be sniffed at by the owner.

if PH rooflights/signage was such a good idea no LA would have provision for "exec" or "no plate plates" would they

you can have no markings and no roof light on you P H vehicle just a Plate on the back , its only the companies that you work with insists on it as its a form of advertising

Yes you are right there, but if I want to stay on the circuit that I have been on for 38 yrs I have no choice! Then the LA insist that I have my plate number on the rear doors and a roof sign with the company number on, but I would like to put on an up market car without all the crap on it but can't. I would like to say that when Brighton PH were allowed roof signs I was one of the few who went to court to argue against them being allowed!!
If PH had no markings on them a lot of the "plying for hire" problems would be solved,particulaly in Brighton.
