What does 'vous veniez me voir chaque semaine'

I chose 'you used to come to see me every week'. 

it was marked incorrect and the correct answer was ' you used to come and see me every week'.

voir means to see and there is no 'et' in the sentence

Please explain why this is correct. I couldn't find an answer in my research.

thanks

Bonjour Linda !

I've had a look at the question you mentioned, and I'm a bit confused, as the answer "You used to come to see me every week." is not an option we offer, therefore can't possibly be the one you selected...

The three possible answers are (with the correct one in green here):

You used to come and see me every week 
You come to see me every week 
You had come to see me every week

I hope that's helpful!
Bonne journée !

Your answer seems just fine to me. Don't know why it was marked as incorrect.

Why isn't 'you had come to see me every week' incorrect?

Bonjour Linda !

It is incorrect, the only correct option here is "You used to come and see me every week"
