Help ZTE ZMAX sim card tray jammed

Please help!! I am trying to change the service and the sim card tray is jammed. I have tried using a pin, and a sim card tray ejector. Can someone please help me eject this sim card? Thank you!
 
A SIM ejector tool should do it. Does it not move at all, or does it move a little and them jam? If the second, try pushing it back in I guess. Is it possible the SIM has come out of the holder slightly, and so it's jamming when you try to remove it?

yes I believe the sim card is jammed in there that's why it won't open, but the sim is really jammed in there I guess. Is there anyway I can open it? Because pushing it in hasn't helped so far
 
All I can think of - and I don't have this phone so am having to guess what the SIM tray is like - is either trying to shake it back into place, or if you can get it out far enough to insert something very, very thin in there to see whether you can push it down into the tray (blindly!). I think you've probably more chance with pushing the tray in and shaking it back into place.

I've never had this happen, but the possibility is one thing I've always disliked about the current micro/nano SIMs and their trays.

Thanks for all your help but I guess i'll have to take it to A shop to be fixed. I'll post if it gets fixed.
