Visa on arrival. Extend it to the maximum which if I am not mistaken is 3 months. Then do a visa run to Hatta border; exit and re-enter.

For bank account, some banks will let you open savings account as a non-resident. No cheque book but you get a debit card and online banking. Requirements vary by bank but passport with UAE entry stamp is needed and sometimes a bank reference letter from your current bank.
