The 36-year-old said 'I'm dying' at least 12 times during his conversation with the operator, but was repeatedly told to hold, reports the Liverpool Echo.
After several exchanges of 'I'm going to die', followed by 'please hold the line', the North West Ambulance Service operator told him: 'We are currently experiencing a high volume of calls and they will answer your call as soon as possible.
'Please stay on the line. Hold the line please.'
But a spokesman for the ambulance trust says the call was made at 11.30pm and that a member of their staff arrived at the scene within eight minutes.
A North West Ambulance Service spokesman told MailOnline: 'We send our sincerest condolences to Mr Millea's family for their tragic loss.
'At 11.30pm on 17 June 2017, we received a 999 call from Shrewsbury Road in Garston.
'This was graded as a category one call – the highest priority - and a total of five clinicians attended the patient.
'The first paramedic was dispatched within three minutes of the call, arriving on scene at 11:38pm, closely followed by an ambulance crew at 11.44pm.
'We treated the patient at the scene and then at 11.55pm took him to Royal Liverpool University Hospital.
'We know that waiting for help can be distressing so, when our emergency phone line is particularly busy, we play an automated message to callers to assure them that their call will be answered if they stay on the line.
'Our patient experience team will discuss any aspect of our response to Mr Millea with his family should they wish to contact us directly.'
After Daniels' murder trial, Mr Millea's family said they had been left 'devastated' by his death.
The 24-year-old claimed he acted in self-defence, but police officers reported being pleased the jury had 'seen through' his testimony.
His sister Kimberley Daniels, 29, of Liverpool, admitted assisting him in his offence and was given a year's prison sentence, suspended for 12 months.
Merseyside Police Detective Inspector Martha Albutt said she helped him 'wash his clothing and take him to the barbers for a haircut' following the stabbing.
