The servers available in the Minecraft Bedrock Edition work off sources outside the Minecraft realms. Because of the controversies surrounding the guidelines and banning, it is not advisable or recommended to ban a player, and also, the ban/unban option is not available.

/kick <username> 

If you use the kick command, the user cannot rejoin the server. You should restart the world or invite the player to the server to allow them to join back.
