Search the forum and you will see. Did they just drain the fluid, or did they also fill it up with the wrong fluid as well? If the latter then, essentially, they've ruined your transmission. They must replace it and all supporting hardware (hoses, cooler) or your car will never work properly again.

I would be skeptical if they claim they never put the wrong fluid in. They could be just trying to cover their mistake without having to buy a new transmission. Seems more likely to me that they replaced it, test drove it, it failed, and then they were like "uh-oh!".
