If I claim for an accident on one vehicle, do I have declare this to the insurers of my other cars?

I have been driving for over 50 years with no insurance claims. Last year, I was allegedly involved in a minor incident in my motorhome and my insurance company paid out on what I believe was a scam. My insurance with that company was subject to No Claims Protection. I run two cars as well as my motorhome. Do I have declare this claim to my car insurance companies?

Yes, you do. I would also be complaining to the insurer of the motorhome and going to the Financial Ombudsman if they have paid out for a claim where no incident took place.
