Yes but they try to knock. You off the benefit. To go on job seekers. I am appealing

ESA is an open ended benefit so don't be suprised if your review is defered.
PIP is not "an instead" of benefit and is awarded for different reasons than ESA

ESA is for people unable to work because of illness or disability
PIP is for people that require help with daily living or mobility
You can qualify for either or both, you can also receive a PIP award even if you work full time

ESA has two components.
Contribution based depending on NI contributions
Income related which is means tested
A claim can be made up of either or both

Here is the gov link to ESA
https://www.gov.uk/employment-support-allowance
There is some mythical ammount that the law says you need to live on, this is your assessed ammount and depends on individual circumstances
It might be a good idea to get f2f advice from CAB or similar
