ESA contribution and Income related

I am ESA contribution and income related. I am in the WRAG group and they do not have an end date noted. What happens after the year as I have seen that contribution ends after a year? A bit confused. I am single so this is my only income plus DLA. Thank you.

    Contribution based ends after a year in the work related group.
    However, if you have no other income apart from DLA, and no savings or partner, you will be entitled to the same basic amount, as income related will take up the slack.

    I think there should be an end date showing but because you also have Income Related....... maybe you were told there is no end date because after your ESA C ends your ESA IR will continue.

    If your ESA C is currently higher than your ESA IR then you will lose out in the change
    If your ESA C is currently lower than your ESA IR then you will see no difference in the change.
