Hi,
We are talking about the Apple’s iPhone upgrade program, it is totally different from the AT&T’s payment program. Check out this link: http://www.apple.com/shop/iphone/iphone-upgrade-program
You are not tied to any carrier.

Note: this article suggests that one will receive the following “perk” if they are enrolled in AT&T’s free upgrade program: “It [iPhone6] will also be bundled with AppleCare+, so your phone will be covered for up to 2 times of accidental damages like screen damage, accidental drops or liquid damage.”
INCORRECT. When enrolled in AT&T’s payment program, you are not covered by AppleCare+ and will not receive a replacement phone at no cost or for discounted price (i.e. $200 replacement cost vs full msrp). You have 14 days to return or exchange your phone, but ONLY if it’s still in “like-new” condition. If you accidentally jump into a pool with your iPhone while enrolled in this plan, DO NOT expect AT&T to replace your brand new waterlogged phone at no cost. You will be required to pay off your ENTIRE remaining balance due on your existing plan PRIOR to receiving a new phone and enrolling in a new upgrade payment plan. Word to the wise, do not break or damage your phone while on this plan and expect an AT&T replacement or upgrade, especially if you have one last payment due before you’re eligible for a “free” upgrade to their newest model. This happened to my iPhone5S. I not only had to pay the payment plan’s remaining balance in full, but I also had to purchas my iPhone6 at its full price. Even though I’ve been with AT&T for 18 years and never missed a single monthly payment, they did not cut me any slack and a supervisor explicitly said that AppleCare+ is not included in the monthly payment plan.
The “fine print” explaining this AT&T plan is complicated for good reasons: 1. to confuse you, 2. to convince you that you’re getting a great deal. This plan is only helpful if one cannot afford to purchase the phone at full price and would like to make monthly payments; it’s exactly like leasing a car – you will pay more in the long run and there are absolutely ZERO perks for doing so.
Lesson: DO NOT get suckered into signing up for AT&T’s payment plan. Pay full price for your new iPhone and purchase AppleCare+ if you’re clumsy.

In reply to Jeff Miller. No I received the A1688 even though I specified AT&T model. The upgrade program is a joke.
