“Your phone refuses to charge even though it is plugged in.”

Check and make sure the phone charger is completely plugged into both the phone and the outlet. Sometimes the phone will not charge properly unless it is fully plugged into the outlet. In very rare cases, not having the charger plugged in completely could cause the phone to short circuit.

If you have determined that the previous issues are not your problem, then it could be the phone charge itself. If that is the case, the charger may have frayed wires or be broken. Buy a new charger for the phone.
