Sudden charging problem w brand new FP3

[AnotherElk]

@FairphoneFrustration

Is there any way I can get enough charge in it to boot up and get my data off it at least?

You could charge the battery with an external charger …

Unable to charge battery

As an example, this universal smartphone battery charger here works for the Fairphone 3 battery: It works because the 2 contact parts are thin enough and stand out enough. So, even if this particular charger might not be available somewhen somewhere, if anybody is in need, just look for universal chargers with similarly shaped contacts.

If you happen to have fairphoneangels with Fairphone 3 expertise and parts in your vicinity, apart from lending a battery to get your data off the phone perhaps a module swap could identify a hardware culprit for the issue (e.g. bottom module).
