I have found the solder wick to still be the best method for smaller holes (even switch holes for that matter). I initially tried solder suckers, even electric ones, and it was harder on smaller holes.

What brand is your solder wick? It could be that its not properly fluxed in which case you can buy flux and dip it in. It could also be oxidising if you left the copper bit out for too long.

I personally use MG Chemicals #4, I tried using a different brand and the difference was drastic, it did not absorb the solder at all.
