Hi there eight years ago when I did my WHV I just took my passbook or statement with the balance visiable, up to London to get the visa... There are other threads about opening a bank account in Aus... but we did it in person at a Westpac when we arrived. This time around (permanent migrants now) we opened an account in the UK via HSBC (we banked with them in UK) and then opened a Westpac on the morning after arriving. HOWEVER, I don't know if there'll be restrictions on opening an account from the UK if you only have a WHV, but I don't recollect it being all that difficult once you've arrived. You might also want to look at this thread for a variety of other websites etc that might be of use: http://britishexpats.com/forum/showthread.php?t=269083HTH
