Front mechs are a work of Stan, and will often play up when the chain is 
towards one end of the rear sprockets but work fine when you shift the 
chain towards the other end of the rear sprockets.  The shop might have 
checked it was working, but not checked properly.

It is possible that they didn't touch the front mech or cables as most 
shops charge for adjusting the gears.  Possibly not good service but then 
I'm not sure what other shops do.

I've heard good things about Ken Foster's Cycle Logic so if they fitted the 
chainset I'd hope they'd set things right while you wait.  If not, I think 
I'm fairly local to you.

Mark.
