I have a Singer Inspiration. I have checked - the bobbin is in right side up and I threaded the machine with the presser foot up.
This is a common problem, don't worry it's easy to fix. take the spool of thread off, remove the bobbin. look for any stray thread pieces in or around the bobbin case, rethread the top of the machine and when you do, follow the threading guide precisely and ---here's the trick---make certain that the thread goes between the tension discs.

the bobbin thread and the upper thread are not locking stitches. There is a loopy mess from the bobbin under the fabric. The top stitch looks okay.
