Did you try to switch cable?
Also, see if there is any change when you plug it into a pc, or after restarting your device

Thats ok, no need to go formal on me

Check the current reaching your device using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free
If the charging port works as it should, you suppose to see value of 900-1100 in the 'avg' row (assuming you're using original 1A charger and cable), otherwise it should be much lower.

I was having the same problem with charging my phone for ages and then it occurred to me that it was a problem with the cables. Try the following fix from my own thread in the general section of the forum.
Link below and good luck with it

Try a different cable. I charge my S3 with a S4 charger and it works great! Good luck.
