View can not be found even though its present and other views are

I have a piece of code which refers to a specific view. The code is

private ActionResult PrepareSuccessResponse(PaymentProcessingContext paymentContext)
{
    this.RemoveLinkedMemberCookie();
    if (paymentContext.Provider.PaymentProviderType == "Worldpay")
    {
        return View("~/Areas/Payments/Views/Confirmation/WorldPayPaymentResponsePage.cshtml", paymentContext.ConfirmationUrl);
    }
    return Redirect(paymentContext.ConfirmationUrl);
}

This however returns the standard error of :

The view '~/Areas/Payments/Views/Confirmation/WorldPayPaymentResponsePage.cshtml' or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations. The following locations were searched: ~/Areas/Payments/Views/Confirmation/WorldPayPaymentResponsePage.cshtml

etc however in the same controller another view in a similar location is returned using these two functions

private const string FailedResponseViewPath = "~/Areas/Payments/Views/ResponseFailures/";
private static string GetViewPath(string viewName)
{
    return string.Format("{0}{1}.cshtml", FailedResponseViewPath, viewName);
}

private ActionResult PrepareFailedProcessingResponse(PaymentProcessingContext paymentContext)
{
    return View(GetViewPath("ProcessingError"), paymentContext);
}

The file structure looks like the image below with the file controller being the PaymentMvcController.cs

This is very similar to the question asked here - The view or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations. The second argument "paymentContext.ConfirmationUrl" is understood as a path to a master page. To explicity make this the model, you should change the return to this:

return View("~/Areas/Payments/Views/Confirmation/WorldPayPaymentResponsePage.cshtml", model:paymentContext.ConfirmationUrl);
