There are 2 problems here.

The description is non standard and misleading and the /api string is stripped
from the URL that it indicates it will use in that URL.  Look.

(lldb) po [[NSURL URLWithString:@"/login"
relativeToURL:self.sharedData.webServicesURL] absoluteURL]
https://home-qa.mrcooper.com/login

(lldb) po [NSURL URLWithString:@"/login"
relativeToURL:self.sharedData.webServicesURL]
/login -- https://home-qa.mrcooper.com/api

See how in the top output that /api is stripped from the URL that it will use
while it is displayed in the output on the bottom?

Damn misleading.
