Legal Question in Banking Law in Texas

I utilized hellosign.com to sign documents electronically all the time. I recently signed a loan application electronically using the website; however, the loan office insists that I sign the document by hand. The document is being sent to the lender electronically. Is my electronic signature not legally binding?
