contents We study black-hole quasinormal modes by applying the complex scaling method (CSM) to the perturbation equations of Schwarzschild and Reissner--Nordström black holes. The method converts the outgoing-wave boundary condition into a non-Hermitian eigenvalue problem, allowing quasinormal-mode frequencies to be computed within a common spectral framework. We first benchmark the method for the Schwarzschild Regge--Wheeler equation and then extend it to the Reissner--Nordström family, including the extremal limit. Our results show that CSM provides a unified and flexible approach to the computation of black-hole quasinormal frequencies.
