I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem with these bulbs and what did you do about it?

I found the twist and turn bulbs difficult, too. Our "chandelier" over the dining table was especially hard to remove the bulbs from because the frame of the light was in the way. My solution was to use a small piece of anti-slip matting to grip the bulb (this also dispelled my fear that the bulb might break in my hand). And, remember, you have to push up while turning to release the bulb from the socket. They are very tight. I believe someone, in an earlier post, recommended using lubricant to prevent corrosion that compounds the problem.
