Most likely the charger. What carrier? I have VZW and I had an issue and they let me try a charger in the store just to make sure.

If your tilting the cord to get it to work it's definitely the cord I recommend replacing it with an OEM cable

I agree. It sounds like your cord has seen it's better day. Borrow someone else's cord and see what happens.

I agree too. It is probably a problem with the cord. Just try another cord to make sure.

I am shocked you only have one charger and cord and not 20 or more like most everyone else....LOL Follow the advice from the others and you will resolve your issue.
