Hello GPB, welcome to the Community. It's time for me to put my detective hat on so I can solve this mystery for you once and for all. On iOS 9, Apple have automatically enabled a setting called "Wi-Fi Assist". Simply put, if you have a weak wifi signal, it sneakily switches you on to cellular data to give your connection a boost. Spotify is waiting for a wi-fi connection so it can download your music without using up all of your cellular data.
You can find instructions on how to disable the sneaky Wi-Fi Assist function here: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT205296 and you can check your data usage by going to Settings on your iOS device and hitting "Cellular" or "Mobile Data". After this, boot up the Spotify app and see if your jam starts to download. If it doesn't, go to https://www.spotify.com/uk/account/overview/ and check whether re-installing the Spotify app accidentally made Spotify think you're using lots of devices offline. Remove whichever entries say "iPhone" there and then try to download your music offline again.
If this STILL doesn't work, uninstall the Spotify app, remove the offline device from your Spotify account, restart your iPhone and reinstall the app. This will do a clean reinstall on the handset. This means Spotify and your new 6S Plus start on a new leaf and they should now work in harmony!
If this still doesn't work, please reply to this thread and I'll get my detective hat on again as I try to help you fix this further. I'll do my best to get back in touch as soon as I can. For now, however, try the solutions I gave and fingers crossed offline listening works for you again! While you're waiting to get your jam stuck on your iPhone, check out the other forums here on the Spotify Community. You can have an off-topic chinwag, a music chat, vote in polls and even help others with their tech support if you're feeling techy. There's so much to do and it's waiting for you! Good luck and please keep me updated if this works. Take care, mate.
