Plantronics did design this case for easy access, too easy - it only releases the headset, it doesn't hold it. My husband loves the BT500 and can't live without a holster case for everything. This is the only case designed for this headset that I could find. He didn't have any problem figuring out how to get the headset into the case, and has no problem wearing the holster, but unmodified, the headset caught on everything and was constantly falling out or being pulled out of the holster, defeating the purpose. We eventually used sticky velcro to modify the holster, and now he's quite happy with it. One sticky square on the back, one sticky square adhered to the front - both the same side of the velcro. Then one long piece over the top that connects to the front and back squares is the configuration that worked for us. It's still easy enough to access, but the headset is now very secure in the case.
