A consumer is not considered to have a continuing relationship with a financial institution if the consumer obtains financial services only in isolated transactions, such as using an ATM.

The correct answer is A. The consumer obtains financial services only in isolated transactions, such as using an ATM. This option describes a scenario where the interaction between the consumer and the financial institution does not establish a continuing relationship as defined under regulations like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), which focuses on customer relationships involving ongoing financial services or transactions. Isolated transactions do not create the kind of continuing relationship that would classify the consumer as a "customer" under the GLBA.
