You do not need to go into a bank to open the account.
I did it totally from here and another Aus webmaster I referred to the same bank has recently done the same thing.
I just faxed paperwork and ID, they sent documents to sign, sign them and send them back and bang, account, check book and a debit mastercard - and it costs me $10 a month in account fees.

Hmm, cool. I have a question for you. Do they allow you to recieve wire transfers. For instance if you wanted to wire money from your US account to your Aussie account?
I was told by three bank personelle from separate banks that I couldn't do this. I could only wire money in, but if I want to wire money out, I'd have to be present. I hope I can wire money out from home via fax.
