Does it still charge when you plug the USB port: do you see the Green LED blinking when USB is connected. If not then it looks like a battery problem. Else it could be the switch, you can visually inspect if the switch is looking good.

There is a cheap copy of the on/off chip which has that behavior, I bet Geeetech uses that copy and that is why it doesn't work.
