They then float on the charger at 13.6v. Indefinitely.
When removed, they will drop over time to 12.85 eventually IF FULLY CHARGED. But lower if not. Were they on charge for at least 24 hours? Its a THREE AMP charger, and the float after the green light continues the charge. So leave them on for a full day.
But if you have not been doing this, for say 12 to 16 hours, then they are likely ruined by now anyway.
Also your photos are too small... Cant see any details.

I am holding on to hope that they can fix it

Therefore, I am working on a transition to lithium. So my choice seems reasonable to me as a temporary solution.
Some investigation revealed that this is most likely a rebranding of the Chinese battery - Chilwee 6-EVF-45. I will try to charge them with 8 amps and if there is no heating, I will do so.

These? I can buy those trade at 30 dollars each for a pallet. But I wouldnt. You get what you pay for. Recycled lead, dirty factories, inconsistent electrolyte strength and purity, no proper test specs anywhere etc. Not if they were free. Too much trouble.
