Stocks and Shares LISA - Credit Check?

Hi MSE Forum

I'm looking to open a stocks and shares LISA.
Details about the ISA, open for £1 transfer fee £25
LISA with The Share Centre (I cant include a link as a new user)

Opening just to get the clock rolling (the account needs to be active for 12months before I can use it to buy a house). I'll transfer the account to another broker when suitable cash ISA appears.

I'm just wondering if this will perform a credit check or not. I'm looking to apply for a credit card in the next couple weeks.

Thanks,
Calvin

    I opened my S&S Lisa with HL last month, no credit favilities provided so no hard search recorded.

    NB I also opened a new 0% all rounder card ready for my house purchase next May so in completely the same boat, I opened it about a month after the Lisa with 36 months 0% to fund furniture so i wouldnt deplete my interest earning savings.
