What exactly happened. Are you stuck in dfu mode? My father in laws iPhone 5 was stuck in dfu and wouldn't connect to iTunes or restore. Just showed the iTunes logo and the Lightning connector. I used a program called reiboot. Worked like a charm. Kicked it out of the recovery loop with no data loss. No guarantees though.

Yes I am stuck at DFU mode
Sorry I edited my post after you replied. So I will repeat myself for a second. I fixed an iPhone 5 stuck in dfu with a program called reiboot. I believe there are windows and Mac versions free. It kicked it out of recovery cycle with no data loss. After that just restore as you normally would in iTunes. There is another program called recboot that does the same thing. Hope it works for you.
 
The device is Jailbroken. Contacting Apple may not be the best move.
Given that it's stuck and the desired outcome is to have it restored (which loses the jailbreak anyway) doesn't seem like there's really anything to lose.
