Redirect not working in any shape or form.
format is /oldfile.html to http://domain/newfolder/newpage/

Removing or renaming old file results in 404 message.
eg try http://geoffreykilts.co.uk/contactus.html should go to http://geoffreykilts.co.uk/wp/contact-geoffrey-the-tailor/

I have used this plugin on numerous occasions with no issue at all.

Any suggestions folks?

It would appear that the plugin cannot cope with files that are in the root if WP is in a subfolder. Had to resort to redirect 301 via htaccess and to be honest it doesnt take much longer to do than use the plugin. Takes up less space too.
