iPhone 8 charger port replacement

[Big Rig]

Can anyone recommend someone online to replace the charger port on my iPhone 8 Plus please?

What's wrong with it? If it's simply that the phone's not charging, try unwinding a paperclip and having a good dig around in the hole - it might just be full of compacted fluff. I got so much out of mine I could have insulated the loft with it! OK - exaggerating a bit there - but I did get so much fluff out it didn't surprise me one bit that the charging cable was no longer making a connection when I put it into the port.

It’s very worn, making it difficult to charge now.

Just wondered. Mine wouldn't charge. Turned out it was stuffed with compacted fluff. Mate who's currently on an extended trip to France messaged me from his wife's phone saying his would no longer charge and to contact him on her number, so I suggested the same and that fixed it.

Wireless charging instead? I think I've only plugged my phone in once.

I genuinely did not know I could wirelessly charge an iPhone 8! Thank you, just ordered an Anker wireless charger.
