Not really that hard. All you need is HK ID card, HK address (can use relative's) and a HK contact phone number. I did that 2 years ago.

I open the account at Hang Seng Bank. I heard HSBC is a bit harder. What I did was, first go to HK and subscribe a phone plan and have the invoice sent to my relative's address. Then after you received your first phone bill, bring that to the bank as proof of residency. Other bank such as HSBC is harder, because you either need electricity bill or pay stub as proof of residency.

No you cannot open a new account over the phone, you must be in person. Once it you have opened it, everything can be done online.
