3-4 days to deduct a test payment?!?!?!

I've just been asked to confirm various security details - no problem, all done. But then I'm told that a small test payment will be taken, and a code will appear on my card statement, and I use that code to finally confirm that everything's OK. Cumbersome, but bearable. But then I'm told that it will take 3-4 days to do the payment+code. That's THREE to FOUR DAYS. Am I supposed to check my bank statement every few minutes for THREE to FOUR DAYS? And I can't use PayPal in the meantime. This is plain ridiculous. My bank has simpler security than this.
