You can also just replace the forward slash '/' with the value %2F in the customer name and then pass it on to the URL. In case of other special characters except ~!$*()_'/\ you can use the encodeURIComponent() function.

This is still not working for me:
this.getView().byId("textfieldid").getValue().encodeURIComponent();
is giving me
Uncaught TypeError: this.getView(...).byId(...).getValue(...).encodeURIComponent is not a function
