Continued payment of wages, catalog of fines and shopping: These key changes apply from November

Employees, speeders or parking offenders: In many areas, new rules will apply from November.

The most important changes and on which days you can save money when shopping. 

Munich - As of November 1st, consumers will again face important changes.

In particular, drivers and people who have not been vaccinated must observe important regulations at the turn of the month.

But shopping fans should also read carefully now.

There are also a few appointments that consumers should definitely make a note of.

Corona: No more wages paid for unvaccinated people

Anyone who previously had to be in quarantine, for example because they were the contact person for a Corona * infected person, continued to receive their wages.

But from November this will no longer be the case.

Unvaccinated people who are quarantined by the authorities because of contact will no longer receive wages.

The government justifies the new regulation with the fact that every citizen now had the opportunity to be vaccinated.

For vaccinated and genesis patients, it still applies that they do not have to go into quarantine if they have had contact with an infected person.

The new regulation is therefore not relevant for these groups.

However, it is important to note that, regardless of whether you have been vaccinated, unvaccinated or recovered, if you are infected with the coronavirus, your wages will continue to be paid, as the case of illness applies here.

The new catalog of fines will apply in Germany from November 10th.

From then on, drivers should be even more careful to really adhere to all the rules.

Otherwise it could be expensive.

An overview:

• In the future, drivers should keep their eyes open, especially when parking.

  If you park your car when there is no stopping or parking, you will have to pay up to 55 euros instead of the previous 15 euros.

  Unauthorized parking in parking spaces for the disabled or parking spaces for e-cars or car sharing vehicles will also cost that much from November 10th.

• Blocking fire service entrances or ambulances will also become more expensive.

  Here, 100 euros are due.

• If you like to hit the gas, you should think twice about it in the future.

  Speed ​​offenders will be punished more severely from next month.

  The fines have been doubled under the new regulations.

  This means that anyone who is 16 to 20 km / h too fast in urban areas will have to pay a fine of 70 euros instead of the previous 35 euros.

Motor vehicle insurance: special regulation enables short-term changes

Insurance companies and contracts usually have a notice period of three months.

It's a little different with car insurance.

Here the deadline is only one month.

While this rule is not new, it is important in November as most policyholders have annual contracts that expire on December 31st.

If you want to change your insurance provider, you should definitely cancel by November 30th.

Ikea: First pop-up store opening

Anyone who lives in Wolfsburg and is not in the mood for a long shopping stroll in the huge Ikea furniture store can look forward to something new.

The first Ikea pop-up branch * will open there on November 1st.

In the small shop in the city center, for example, kitchens can be planned and furniture ordered.

However, there are no takeaway goods such as tea lights or napkins there.

Black Friday: shopping for bargain hunters

If you still have money left at the end of the month, you should definitely mark November 26th in your calendar.

On this day Black Friday * will take place again.

Then bargain hunters can get hold of numerous bargains on the Internet again.

One or the other Christmas present can be bought cheaper here.

PayPal is raising fees

As a result of Brexit, the online payment service PayPal is raising its fees *.

Starting November 10, businesses will be required to pay a 1.29 percent fee for payments to and from the UK.

Within the EU, the rate is only 0.5 percent.

This change could result in UK products becoming more expensive in the future.
