I've downloaded a zip file from that link just now.  Directly
downloaded, no page involved during the download process.

If I then try loading the files inside the zip file into a web browser
I get pages with blank sections, and looking a bit similar to yours
(minus the stock photo of telephonists) but then I suspect it's missing
content from the web.

That's not unusual behaviour for trying to download pages from the
internet, they often depend on something else that didn't get included.
If they're providing a downloadable statement, that's usually better
off as a PDF file.  If they're providing downloadable data, that's
usually better as some kind of spreadsheet format - HTML is a rotten
way to import data into something for further working out.

First and second impressions are that the service isn't providing
useful content rather than the web browser being at fault.  But,
however, and this caught me for a while:  I just tried expanding my
browser window to be wider, and TADA!  I'm seeing tabular data, albeit
no monetary values are visible (just hash marks).  CRAP DESIGN!

The PDF references look like they ought to be clickable links, but they
don't appear to be interactive in any way.

Looking at the two HTML files in a text editor, I can see they're chock
full of styling and drawing code, and lots of references to font and
JavaScript files which aren't included in the zip file, but I haven't
seen any obvious data in the content.  It's a huge blob to try and look
through, though.  I see a collection of numbers at the bottom that's
probably SVG data, but I can't read it directly.  I'd call it a huge
messy way to try and display a tiny bit of data.

I hope it doesn't contain any private data, because you've just made it
completely public.

I could upload a screenshot of how it rendered if you want, and if
widening your browser window doesn't help you, but since it may be
private data I don't want to make the situation worse.  Your call...
