I have a customer webinar planned using teams.

In the unlikely event that a competitor registers for our product webinar, how can I remove them from being able to join the meeting?

    Hi Jimmy, hi MS-Team,

    please notice from a company that regularly does Webinars: It is absolutely mandatory and an update priority to let the host control who should NOT participate at a webinar! As OP said we need to ensure no competitor or unwanted person is joining.

    As a paying customer we hope this will be solved asap. I have to show our new tool to competitors tomorrow because of this.

    @Flack, Natalie - Currently, it doesn't seem to be feasible to remove the registered webinar person.

    Please refer below document to modify webinar info:

    I'm setting up a webinar for the first time on Teams and this is a pretty basic flaw, I can't believe they didn't think of this earlier.

    Hi @Flack, Natalie

    Based on your requirement, we have checked at our end and seems at this moment it isn’t feasible to achieve it.

    As a workaround, you could try to update your webinar invite link and resend it the register link to the attendees to remove those attendees.

    Hi there!

    Has there been any update on this feature? Recently encountered the same issue with making a Webinar that competitors have signed up for. Is there a feature yet to remove them?
