Refused life insurance

I did a quote through a comparison website for life insurance and critical illness but was refused insurance by one company :( Does this mean I need to declare this on my home and car insurance policies? I have a feeling I was declined life insurance due to a previous medical condition which is now not an issue but slightly annoyed that I even bothered trying to get a quote because now it could affect my other insurances! Any thoughts appreciated!

    You weren't refused insurance - they declined to quote


    This won't affect any other insurances

    I think you are wrong. Life insurance providers don't ask for medical questions unless you are completing an application. Obtaining a quote purely involves your age, smoker status and the cover you want.

    That said, NO, you don't need to declare this on your car/home insurance.
