Phishing emails are getting way too good at looking like the real catch 👀🎣 But here’s the trick, they’re baiting you to click without a second thought. One quick tap and suddenly you’re on the hook for a headache you definitely do not want. The good news? Once you know the warning signs, it’s a lot easier to spot when something smells phish-y. We’re reeling in the biggest red flags so you can spot the scam before it hooks you. Cast a smarter line and level up your scam radar ⬇️ mypremieronline.com/newsroom…

Your password deserves some backup! 🔐💪 With scam emails, fake login pages and suspicious messages making the rounds, an extra layer of protection can go a long way. Multi-factor authentication (MFA), sometimes called two-factor authentication or 2FA, adds another step at login, like entering a verification code or approving a prompt, to help confirm it’s really YOU. If a scammer tricks you into sharing your password, that extra step can help keep them out of your account. Just remember: never share verification codes or approve login requests you didn’t initiate! Ready for a quick security check? Head to your accounts’ security settings and turn on MFA wherever it’s available. Start with your email and keep going! 💙 #PremierCommunications #OnlineSafety #CybersecurityTips

Okay, quick check-in. How's everyone handling the time change so far? 😂⏰ Daylight Savings Time officially ended this weekend, and while that extra hour of sleep is nice, these earlier sunsets might take a little getting used to! 😅 On the bright side (see what we did there? 😉), it's a pretty good excuse to get comfy, catch up on your favorite shows or squeeze in one more round of gaming before calling it a night. 🍿🎮 We can't do much about the sun setting earlier, but we CAN help make adjusting to those longer evenings a little easier! With the PremierHQ app, you can check connected devices, run speed tests and even manage the kids' Wi-Fi schedules, all with just a few taps on your phone.📱💙 The PremierHQ app is available for customers with our GigaSpire router.

Something spooky could be lurking behind your slow internet speeds... 👻👀 If your internet has been lagging, buffering or just not keeping up lately, a SUPERBOX or similar "free TV" streaming device could be the culprit! We're continuing to see these devices contribute to connection issues, sometimes even when nobody's watching TV. Some can keep using bandwidth behind the scenes, which makes your Wi-Fi work overtime. 😳 But here's where things get easier! 📱🛡️ With the PremierHQ* app, you can see what's connected to your home Wi-Fi, spot unfamiliar devices and do a little detective work right from your phone. So before you blame your internet plan, remember that little box sitting quietly by your TV might not be so quiet after all! 🎃 🔗 Follow the clues and learn how to test your connection: mypremieronline.com/newsroom… *Gigaspire router required for PremierHQ app. #PremierCommunications #InternetTips #HomeWiFi #SpookySeason #StayConnected

A simple hello can mean more than you think. 👋 With World Mental Health Day coming up tomorrow, we're shining a little extra light on something that makes a difference in our everyday lives: the people we can count on. Maybe it's catching up with family over a video call, sharing a much-needed laugh with a friend after a long week or reaching out when life feels a little overwhelming. Sometimes, even the smallest interactions can help us feel a little less alone. 📱💬 And that's the thing about a good connection. It's about so much more than what happens on a screen. It's about showing up for the people who matter, even when you can't be there in person. At Premier, helping keep those moments within reach is what we're here for. 🛜 💙 So as we head into the weekend, consider this your friendly reminder: Make that call, send that message and don't forget to check in with yourself too. 😌 #WorldMentalHealthDay #PremierCommunications #MentalHealthMatters #StayConnected #PowerOfConnection

Gen Z vs. Gen X: Name Challenge! 🎤🤣 Michael Scott or Michael Jackson? Chris Stapleton or Chris Pratt? And JASON DERULOOOO (bonus points if you get that reference)!! 🎶 💀 Emily (Gen Z) and Tam (Gen X) took on the name game challenge during last week's MTA Safety Day to see who came to mind first when given the same list of names. Let's just say there were some VERY different answers. 😂 Now we're curious...which names had you shouting a completely different answer at your screen? 👀👇 #PremierCommunications #PremierTEAM #GenZ #GenX #namegame #FunnyReels

Last week, our Premier TEAM got together for a day focused on safety, teamwork and a little friendly competition. 👏 MTA Safety Day covered a range of important topics, from back safety to human trafficking awareness. Over lunch, we put that proper posture to good use with a bean bag tournament. Or cornhole, depending on which Iowan you ask. 😂🌽 Huge thank you to Vero’s Mexican Bites and Chix Chicken and Waffles (Le Mars) for providing a delicious lunch! Plus, with so many of our tech vehicles gathered at the office, we couldn’t pass up the chance to grab a fleet photo. 💙 A full day of learning, good food and a little fun together as a TEAM! @GuardianGroupGG #PremierCommunications #PremierTEAM #SafetyDay #growthmindset

Fall means more time spent streaming, gaming and finding something new to watch. 🍂📺🎮 Between new releases, comfort-watch favorites, spooky picks and whatever suddenly lands on the watchlist, there’s a lot to choose from this time of year. And sometimes it helps to know what you’re getting into first. Especially if you’d rather not get blindsided by a jump scare you definitely weren’t expecting. 😅 👻 Common Sense Media is a handy resource for checking movies, TV shows, games and apps. You can see reviews, content details and age guidance, which can be especially helpful when you’re choosing something for the whole household. So whether you’re starting a new series, picking a game, planning a cozy night in or looking for something spooky, it’s worth keeping bookmarked. 👀 🔗 Check it out 👉 commonsensemedia.org/ #PremierCommunications #FallStreaming #StreamingTips #SpookySeason #FamilyTech

Four parades in one day made for a pretty great Friday. ☀️🎉 Our Premier TEAM joined the Homecoming fun in Le Mars, Hinton, Okoboji and Sioux Center, and every stop brought an awesome crowd and plenty of energy.

The chaos continues with our Help Desk crew. 🤣🎃🏈 Brian put his trust to the test, the throws kept coming and that pumpkin eventually came down...at least some of the time. Was it skill? Was it physics? We’ll let you decide. 😂 #PremierCommunications #ITrustMyTeamChallenge #PremierTEAM #FunnyReels
