Can't remove sim card from e75

Hi, I just bought e75. I need to remove my sim card, somehow, the card is stuck in the sim card slot. Could anyone advise me how to remove the sim card? The user guide book only show how to insert the card into the sim card slot, but did not mention how to remove from sim card slot.

Re: Can't remove sim card from e75

It seems to be quite tight, indeed. But I was able to get mine out with a little bit of trying. First time I tried to remove it from my E75.

 

There're no latches or locks or anything that keeps it in place. I just pressed down hard on the visible part and tried to slide it down.

 

After a few attempts, it started moving and came out.

 

A pair of tweezers probably helps.

Hi Winkie,

Yes, very badly designed, I cannot believe how hard it is to get the SIM card out!

I had to remove it when I went to a Mobile operator store, I borrowed a paper clip and straghtened it out and used one of the ends to drag it out. An opticians/jewellers mini screwdriver does the trick as well.

Still a pain though!

Hi There, I actually do face this problem too, but it is simple, use a cellophane tape and stick at the part of the sim card then press it, and pull out.

Brilliant tip about sellotape!  Worked a treat.

The tip of using the cello tape was very good. Hope Nokia engineers understand the further value engineering the users have to do due to bad design.
