Make sure you are using application/json as a content type to transfer the data from the server to the client.

in the NSString class you will find the methods 'stringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:' and 'stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:' for handle percent escapes.

the escape sequencies you must handle by yourself for example with 'stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"@#039;" withString:@"'"' ...
