Does a Lloyds credit limit increase leave a search behind?

Options
I know with Barclaycard it doesn't leave a search on your report. Does Lloyds?

    No search is recorded. However it will only affect your credit score by the fact a change has been recorded on your file.

    Thanks. Is that the case even if you apply for a limit increase, as opposed to them offering one automatically?
