iPod not always charging

Hello,


I have been having a issue when I plug in my iPod to charge, it wont BUT when I push up from the bottom of the charger (Looking at the face of the iPod and pulling the charger from the back toward you.) I tried different plugs, got the dirt out of the port. But still acts up with charging. I been able to get to charge, but its been really hard at times to get to charge.


Please Help!

Thanks 🙂

iPod touch, iOS 9.3.1
