Losing power means that the timing is not right,engine is not working on it's full capacity,maybe they knocked the crankshaft sensor that measure the speed of the engine while they worked on the timing belt,I hope they used genuien parts for your car,and not the after market ones.

if it ran fine when it went in its something they have done therefore its up to them to sort it out
