    Have you tried a different charger and cable. Otherwise it sounds like a faulty charging port. Providing the phone has no physical damage then Samsung will cover it. 2 year warranty on Samsung phones. Don't bring it to a 3rd party repair shop. You'll lose your Samsung warranty, it'll cost you money and you'll more than likely lose the water resistance.

    got it off by doing this and using wireless charging from now on. Only thing the fan noise can be bloody irritating

    I do think there's something wrong with my USB port as i have to toggle the cable for it too work on my Laptop

    I have this problem with my Samsung A3 too and its definitely the charger port with mine. It's not worth fixing, so I just bought new charging cables, which always fixes it for a while.

    Some USB-C are slightly thinner than others and any play in the charging port seems to set it off.
    New cable and I get another few months out of it
