I’ve been having trouble charging my controller for a few weeks now. It’ll sometimes charge right away or I’ll have to give it a few tries until it charged but now it won’t charge at all and I’ve been using my phone charger that’s plugged into the outlet on the wall to charge it. Any recommendations would be helpful please and thank you.

Let’s rule out the controller battery and try replacing it. You can buy a new one from iFixit if you do not live in the USA, but if you live in the USA you will have to get it elsewhere.
