If the insertion point you're trying to place into overflows the frame, then it is no longer the last insertion point of the text frame. It might be the first of the next or it might be the first of the overset text.

I'm not sure what happens if you try to place into overset text. But if it does work, and if in fact the insertion point you're trying to place into is the last of the story, then try placing into the last insertion point of the parent story of the text frame.

I will often work with the parent story of the frame rather than the frame itself for precisely this reason.
