Longest time on hold

So right now I'm on the phone with Time Warner Cable about how my internet stopped working for a good ammount of time. However, I have been on hold for so long that it has mysteriously turned back on with no problems. I am only remaining on the line to see how much longer I'll have to wait.

Anyways, its been 50 minutes. I am using a speakerphone so I haven't developed a case of permanent cauliflower ear.

Anyone beat that?

I think I've done an hour plus with Dell although that included transfers.

I was on hold with Uhaul for about an hour one time. One of the worst experiences I've ever had with a company.

Reserved a Uhaul. I was told that they didn't have me in the system..."well, let me give you my confirmation number." Can't find it anywhere. Don't have a truck for me (moving the next morning.) "Sir, you'll have to call the corporate number." Call...on hold for 1 hour only to have the call answered by a machine saying "Call back during our business hours..." I was on hold right until everyone went home for the day.

Worst company ever.
