WordPress Dutch characters encoding problem

I am using the Dutch special characters like ï and it is being converted to u00ef.

I have tried ut8_unicode_ci in wp-config and in the database tables where the value is saved but it is still saved in the database as encoded characters. I want to display it as Dutch characters.
