If the battery was dead for a long period of time with out having it charged back up then it will go bad and ultimately won't hold a charge.
Another possibility is that they did charge it but threw a quick charger to "shorten" the time and it didn't completely charge. To obtain a good solid charge and not a hollow one that looks fully charged but drains quick is a slow steady charge usually taking several hours.
I'd say you probably need a new battery if it was dead when you first looked at it because obviously they were attending to it.
