You are not the only one. 

I have found that if you put a largish flat blade screwdriver in the side of the plug and twist, so as topit pressure on the tab, the plug will come free very easily.

That's generally how I do it, flatblade driver in and twist.

I think you are supposed to pull back on the tab which lifts the catch but that rarely works for me especially on the external connectors!
