Default Do any other pool owners have green water?

I just arrived at our Villages home last night and was highly anticipating a relaxing swim in our pool, which is maintained by T&D pool services. The first thing I noticed when I went into our birdcage was that the pool water was cloudy and has a greenish color to it, WTF? I did not want to get into that water! I called T&D this morning and they told me all the rain we have been having adds so much new untreated water to the pool that the chemicals can't keep up and is causing algae issues throughout the Villages. Really?

This morning I also went to an Estate sale since it was just down the road from us. There was a pool at that house that had crystal clear water! I also checked with a neighbor who has a pool and her water is perfect! I am guessing they both have had the same amount of rain as at our home. Do any other pool owners have this problem or is T&D feeding me an excuse for not properly doing their job? We pay T&D a lot of money to take care of our pool, which they also built. Is it not reasonable to expect the water to be clean and swimable when we arrive at our home?
