Charge cable not secure when using gel case

[iGarcia13]

Does anyone else with the Nokia soft case have trouble keeping the charge cable from falling off? Whenever I have it charging and pick up my phone to text or something the cable ends up falling off. I even wake up in the morning to find it unplugged and uncharged.

I had a similar problem with my first lumia, it would make the charge noise and display the charging icon, but in the morning the battery never charged.

Yep. Almost took an XActo knife to my Gel Case today. I use portable USB chargers to move around while charging and this is becoming a PITA. No indicator light so I have to turn my L900 on constantly to make sure it is still charging.

Going to need to take the case off and maybe put a wood block in it so I have something to cut against. Great little cover, but very little thought regarding the charging port.

Well, I've spent $4 on ebay for a gel case (not from NOKIA, of course, so I guess it doesn't look as good), but I don't have that problem.
