My first suggestion is to get a new bank. If they can't be bothered to help you, you shouldn't be bothered to be their customer. Make sure you tell them that poor customer service is the reason why.

My second suggestion is upgrade your machine. 250M memory is NOT enough to browse the modern web, even with FF ESR 52.3. You need a minimum of 1GB ram to comfortably use the modern web, preferably 2GB or more.
My third suggestion is try different web browsers. Chromium (or Google Chrome) should just work out-of-the-box even if FF does not. As others have suggested, you could also try upstream FF 57. You may need to install some working version of Java or (shudder) Flash, even though Flash is EOL.
