Are rates only secured for that day you call up?!

Am going through a product switch with Halifax and have already paid my ERC on Monday which shows on my account.
Ive been waiting for a ‘signed declaration’ to be sent but my mortgage advisor there only works a couple of days a week and so no response constantly to emails!!
Does anyone know if they can still pull the rate if I’ve paid the ERC but it’s still at ‘pre offer’ stage as i’m waiting on this declaration?!
Also is it a paper signed document through the post or digital?
So stressful waiting for other people!
