To answer your question, our ESA Appeal guide explains how to lodge an appeal. See
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/esa
As you have only included one date in your post it is difficult to understand what has happened and when
You say you had a phone call from the DWP, the person asked you some questions and then stated you were in the Support Group, when was this and had you previously challenged your placement in the WRAG?
You might also want to have a look at the following.
Is there any risk to challenging a decision?
How long do I have to appeal?
How to submit an appeal
ESA medical – what forms to ask for?
Qualifying for the Support Group
Disability Rights UK Factsheet - Appeals and reconsiderations
Preparing for a Tribunal
MOJ Video of ESA Appeals Process and Tribunal
Please reply to this post if you can provide additional information or have any questions.

Mrs Hurtyback wrote: It seems to me that Cathy had a WFI carried out over the phone and was told that she would not be phoned again. Cathy thought that this mean that she had been moved into the Support Group. Is this correct?
