A former colleague of mine was recently made redundant from a regional airline. The very next day the IPF provided him with an information pack regarding his legal rights, who was recruiting, a fact sheet about his entitlements. They provided a free solicitor's consultation. He hadn't even contacted them, they were totally on the ball with his situation. BALPA did absolutley nothing because they said that his former employer did not recognise BALPA.

He cancelled his BALPA membership & is now fully under the wing of the IPF. If you aren't employed by an airline which recognises BALPA then you are wasting your money by giving your union fees to them.
