Multi-byte characters in the empTitle field of loan ID 38509961 is crashing my UTF-8 dependent client process.  Apparently this data is not checked when borrowers have finger-fumbles in applying for a loan.  Beware.  Hope he gets funded/rejected soon!

Other issues I've had to muddle through:


• double quotes within double quotes in free text
• 
  within free text
• double quotes being in the header row in REST but not in SOAP or CSV
• free text being different between CSV and API versions (CSV cuts out special characters)

I use a CSV parser that can accept the RFC 4180 format (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180), rarely encounter crashing issues.

Why is it causing your program to fail? I don't see my client failing because of this ... Maybe you are using XML here? If so, I would suggest using JSON response as it is simple key value pairs.

What was offending data in empTitle? It just says kitchen che f. https://www.peercube.com/comment?loanid=38509961

I use JSON and API and I don't see any issue. It might be how you may be parsing data.
