rEMORTGAGE - Does a mortgage deed have to be signed

Hi ,
I recently applied for a remortgage to a new deal with another lender. since then we have gone under offer on our home so i didnt return the mortgage deed to the lender (the deal is no longer available and not tfr'able to new property). they normally write to chase me every 2 weeks and the initial completion date has passed as i never sent back the docs.
i received yesterday a completion statement for 22nd June. I called to ask them to stop it, but suely if i havent signed the mortgage deed
a) they cannot place a charge on the property
b) should not proceed anyway...
seems a bit odd.
